Correct answer is (a) NF 3< NCl 3< NBr 3< NI 3

Q. Arrange the following species in increasing order of bond angle
$N F_{3}, NC l_{3}, NB r_{3}, N I_{3}$

$N F_{3} < NC l_{3} < NB r_{3} < N I_{3}$

$N F_{3} < NB r_{3} < N I_{3} < NC l_{3}$

$N I_{3} < NB r_{3} < NC l_{3} < N F_{3}$

$NB r_{3} < N I_{3} < N F_{3} < NC l_{3}$

Correct answer is (a) $N F_{3} < NC l_{3} < NB r_{3} < N I_{3}$

Q. Arrange the following species in increasing order of bond angle NF3​,NCl3​,NBr3​,NI3​

NF3​<NCl3​<NBr3​<NI3​

NF3​<NBr3​<NI3​<NCl3​

NI3​<NBr3​<NCl3​<NF3​

NBr3​<NI3​<NF3​<NCl3​
