▸ different, because in each case there are a different number of atoms around the central atom

▸ different, because in each case there are a different number of electron pairs around the central atom

▸ the same, because both nitrogen and carbon are both in the second period

▸ the same, because in each case there are the same number of electron pairs around the central atom

▸ different or the same, depending on the conditions leading to maximum repulsion
