The bond angle \(H-X-H\) is the greatest in the compound
- A \(PH_3\)
- B \(CH_4\)
- C \(NH_3\)
- D \(H_2O\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(CH_4\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
More the number of lone pairs on central atom, the greater is the contraction caused in the angle between bond pairs. In \(PH_3\) the bond pairs of electrons are so much farther away from the central atom due to larger size. Thus the lone pair cause greater distortion in…
