Q. The correct sequence of decrease in the bond angles of the following hydrides is
Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure
A
$NH_3 > PH_3 > AsH_3 > SbH_3$
48%
B
$NH_3 > AsH_3 > PH_3 > SbH_3$
22%
C
$SbH_3 > AsH_3 > PH_3 > NH_3$
21%
D
$PH_3 > NH_3 > AsH_3 > SbH_3$
9%
Solution:
In similar molecules, as the electronegativity of the central atom decreases and the size increases, the bond angle decreases
