Which one of the following compounds has bond angle as nearly ?

Options:(select one or more)

Answer:
B, D
Solution:

Bond angle depends on the molecular geometry and repulsion between bond pairs and lone pairs.

  • NH₃ → trigonal pyramidal shape, bond angle ≈ 107°
  • H₂O → bent shape, bond angle ≈ 104.5°
  • H₂S → bent shape, bond angle ≈ 92°, which is nearly 90°
  • SF₆ → octahedral shape with F–S–F bond angle of 90°

Correct Answer: (B) H₂S and (D) SF₆
