Answer:

a) CO2

Explanation:

The [tex]CO_2[/tex] has a linear structure because, as it is shown in the figure, the central atom doesn't have a free pair of electrons which could bend the linear structure. That is the case of the water molecule (H2O).

Methane (CH4) and H2O2 have tetrahedrical structures.
