In SOCl(2), the Cl-S-Cl and Cl-S-O bond ...

In `SOCl_(2)`, the Cl-S-Cl and Cl-S-O bond angles are-

A

`130^(@),115^(@)`

B

`106^(@),96^(@)`

C

`107^(@),108^(@)`

D

`96^(@),106^(@)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
In `SOCl_(2)`, the Cl-S-Cl bond angle is `96^(@)` and Cl-S-O bond angle is `106^(@)`, since multiple bonds create more repulsions compared to the single bonds.
