Chemical Bonding And Molecular Structure Question 528

Question: Bond angle between two hybrid orbitals is 105o. s-orbital character of hybrid orbital is

Options:

A) Between 2021

B) Between 1920

C) Between 2122

D) Between 2223

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

Bond angle between two hybrid orbitals is 105o it means orbitals are sp3 hybridised but to lone pair repulsion bond angle get changed from 109o to 105o . So its % of s-character is between 22-23%.
