Answer:   
  the electron geometry is tetrahedral due to four groups surrounding the
sulfur atom ( 2 lone pairs and 2 hydrogens) 
 the molecular geometry of the hydrogen sulfide i found to be bent (which i
havnt come across in uni for some reason) 
 and due to the lone pair repulsion of the S-H bonds the angle will be
considerably less than 109.5 degrees, around 92 degrees.   
 the differenece between molecular and electronic is that molecular takes into
account only the bonded substituents around the sulfur such as the
hydrogens, while the electronic geometry is the geometry of the localised
electron densities( bonds and lone pairs).

The electron geometry is tetrahedral due to 4 groups around the

sulfur atom.

The molecular geometry of the hydrogen sulfide. lone pair repulsion of the S-H bonds the angle will be around 92 degrees.  

The difference between molecular and electronic is that molecular takes into

account only the bonded substituents around the sulfur such as the hydrogens.
