The largest bond angle in

A

`AsH_(3)`

B

`NH_(3)`

C

`H_(2)O`

D

`PH_(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

The bond angle in `H_(2)O` is about `(104.5^(@))`. In `H_(2)O`,O-atom has two lone pairs. The bond angle in `NH_(3)` is about `107^(@)C`. In `NH_(3)` N-atom has one lone pair. In `AsH_(3)` and `PH_(3)` the bond angles are nearly `90^(@)`.
