VSEPR is an acronym which stands for Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion. The theory is most commonly used as basis for establishing the shapes of the substances.

CF4, as can be seen, has only one carbon atom and four fluorine atoms. The most preferred shape of the chemical is therefore, tetrahedral.
