The bond angles of NH(3),NH(4)^(o+) and ...

The bond angles of `NH_(3),NH_(4)^(o+)` and `overset(Theta)(NH_(2)` are in the order .

A

`NH_(2)^(-) lt NH_(3) gt NH_(4)^(+) `

B

`NH_(4)^(+) gt NH_(3) gt NH_(2)^(-)`

C

`NH_(3) gt NH_(2)^(-) gt NH_(4)^(+) `

D

`NH_(3) gt NH_(4)^(+) gtNH_(2)^(-)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
As the number of lone pairs of electrons increases, bond angle decreases. Therefore, the order of bond angle
`underset(No lp)(NH_(4)^(+)) gt underset(1lp)(NH_(3)) gt underset(2lp)(NH_(2)^(-))`
