Q. If in hybrid orbital s-orbital character increases, then bond angle:

Rajasthan PMTRajasthan PMT 2002Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure

Solution:

In a hybrid orbital, $s$-character increases bond angle increases.
e.g., Bond angle of, $s p^{3}< s p^{2} < s p$
$25 \% \,33 \% \,50 \% \,s$-character
