In `NH_(3)`, bond angle is less than tetrahedral bond angle due to ________.

Assertion : bond angle is less than the normal tetrahedral bond angle. Reason : Lone pair-lone pair repulsion decreases bond angle.

Assertion : bond angle H2O is less than the normal tetrahedral bond angle. Reason : Lone pair-lone pair repulsion decreases bond angle.

(A) In NH_(3) the bond angle is very close to tetrahedral angle (R ) In NH_(3) nitrogen atom is SP^(3) hybridized

HNH bond angle in NH_3 is______.

Assertion (A) Bond angle in ethers is slightly less than tetrahedral angle. Reason (R) There is a repulsion between the two bulky (-R) groups.

The bond angle in PH_3 is less than bond angle in PF_3 This is due to

Why is the bond angle of water less than the bond angle of CH_(4) ?

Why is the bond angle of water less than the bond angle of CH_(4) ?

In both alcohols and ethers , oxygen is sp^(3) - hybridised and has two lone pairs . However the R-O-H bond angle to alcohols is less than tetrahedral angle of 109^(@)28and the R-O-R bond angle to ethers is more than the tetrahedral angle of 109^(@)28 , Explain why ?
