Hey mate here's your answer
SF6 molecular geometry. Sulfur hexafluoride has a central sulfur atom around which one can see 12 electrons or 6 electron pairs. Thus, the SF6 electron geometry is considered to be octahedral. All the F-S-F bonds are 90 degrees, and it has no lone pairs.
Water or H2O has 8 electrons around the central oxygen atom. This means there are four electron pairs arranged in a tetrahedral shape. There are two bonding pairs and two lone pairs. The resulting shape is bent with an H-O-H angle of 104.5°.
