read about the concept
The VSEPR (Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion) theory is used to predict molecular geometries and bond angles. Experimental evidence (like X - ray crystallography, spectroscopy) has shown that the bond angles predicted by VSEPR for many molecules match the experimentally observed bond angles. So the statement that bond angles predicted by VSEPR are unsupported by experimental evidence is false.
