Question

Match the following molecules with their bond angles:

List-I (Molecule)		List-II (Bond angle)
A) \(\mathrm{NH}_3\)		I) 102.2°
B) \(\mathrm{O}_3\)		II) 107.8°
C) \(\mathrm{S}_6\)		III) 93.6°
D) \(\mathrm{PH}_3\)		IV) 117°

• A. A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
• B. A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III
• C. A-II, B-I, C-III, D-IV
• D. A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I

Hint:

Bond angles depend on electron pair repulsions and molecular geometry.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

- \({NH}_3\): 107.8° 
- \({O}_3\): 117° 
- \({S}_6\): 102.2° (approximate) 
- \({PH}_3\): 93.6°
