Question

Consider the molecules CH4,NH3 and H2O. Which of the given statements is false?

Options

A.

The H - O - H bond angle in CH4, the H - N - H bond angle in NH3, and the H - O - H bond angle in H2O are all greater than 90o .

B.

The H - O - H bond angle in H2O is larger than the H - C - H bond angle in CH4.

C.

The H - O - H bond angle in H2O is smaller than the H - N - H bond angle in NH3.

D.

The H - O - H bond angle in CH4 is larger than the H - N - H bond angle in NH3.

Solution


All the molecules are sp3 hybridized and Bond angle of H2O is smaller than NH3.
