What causes a molecule to have a bent shape instead of linear? A. Repulsion between protons forcing the bonding atoms out of line
B. Attractions between the bonding atoms pulling the bonds toward each other
C. Lone electron pairs pushing the bonding electrons out of line
D. Intermolecular forces pushing the atoms out of line and toward each other

in scientific notation, the value of the  speed of light in a vacuum

  will be written as 2.995 * 10^8. when this value is represented in the form of

  a * 10^b, then, a = 2.995 and b = 8.

the value of the speed of light in a vacuum given above can also be rounded up to approximately 300000000. in this case, the scientific notation will be written as 3 *10^8.
