    a. The central atom is sulfur

    b. SF2

    c. The central atom has two lone pairs

    d. The ideal angle between the sulfur-fluorine bonds is 109.5°

    e. I expect the actual angle between the sulfur-fluorine bonds to be less than 109.5° because unbonded pairs repel bonded pairs more than bonded pairs repel other bonded pairs. So the bonds here will be pushed closer than normal
