ChemistryMediumassertion reason

Assertion : The bond angle around $PBr_{3}$ is larger than that in $PH_{3}$ but bond angle of $NBr_{3}$ is less than that of $NH_{3}$ .

Reason : Atomic size of Br is smaller than that of P atom because of larger nuclear charge.

Answer:

Solution:

Bond angles are influenced by electronegativity and steric hindrance. Br is larger than H.
