The P Block Elements - Result Question 68
####71. The correct order of increasing bond angles in the following species are :
[2010]
(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
Show Answer
Solution:
- (d) (i) As the number of lone pair of electrons increases, bond angle decreases due to repulsion between
(ii) As the electronegativity of the central atom increases, bond angle increasess. Hence, the correct order of bond angle:
two lone pairs two lone pairs one lone pair and one electron
