Solution

I'm sorry, but your question seems to be incomplete. Could you please provide more details or clarify what you're asking? In general, to determine the shape of a molecule, you need to know the Lewis structure and then apply the VSEPR theory. For example, water (H2O) has a bent molecular shape because the oxygen atom has two pairs of electrons not involved in bonding (lone pairs) in addition to the two hydrogen atoms it's bonded to.
