I need the Lewis dot diagram and molecular shape (tetrahedral,etc.) for C2H5Cl
I will help you, but I will not give you the answer.
1) Count the valence electrons (look at group number)
2) Make sure Cl satisifes the octet rule and has 8 electrons around it with one bond (standard halogen are always like this)
3) Draw lewis diagram and make sure total electrons (bonds count for 2) equals the total number of v.e
4) Looking at your model and counting how many bonds you have, and the number of lone pairs you can determine the system of your diagram, for example if A2E1 it will have a bent shape, where A is the number of bonds and E lone pairs

Valence shell electron pair repulsion (VSEPR) theory is a model used for predicting the shapes of individual molecules, based upon their extent of electron-pair electrostatic repulsion, determined using steric numbers. On the other hand, Lewis structures, also called Lewis-dot diagrams, are diagrams that show the bonding between atoms of a molecule, and the lone pairs of electrons that may exist in the molecule. Hope it helps!
