Question

According to VSEPR model, molecules adopt geometries in which their valence 
electron pairs position themselves as far from each other as possible. The VSEPR
model considers double and triple bonds to have slightly greater repulsive 
effects than single bonds because of the repulsive effect of $\pi$-electrons. 
However the lone pair creates the maximum repulsive effect.
