The shape around each central atom in each molecule of CH₃¬O¬CH₂CH₃ is Tetrahedral and ideal bond angle is 109°.
In the given, CH₃¬O¬CH₂CH₃ (methoxy ethane), has a total of three single C-O bonds and one double C=O bond. No lone pairs are present. According to the VSEPR theory, the steric number is the sum of the bonds and the lone pairs present on the central atom. For a total of 4 bonds and no lone pairs, the steric number of P is 4. This corresponds to a tetrahedral shape both electronically and geometrically. We don't expect any significant deviation, as no lone pairs are present on C, so we would have an angle of about 109°.
