Q. 19. The correct order of increasing bond angles in the following species are:
Sol:
The correct order of increasing bond angle is
* In there are 2 lone pairs of electrons present on the central chlorine atom. Therefore the bond angle in _ is less than 118° which is the bond angle in which has less number of electrons on chlorine.
Answer : (3)
