Arrange `OF_(2), Cl_(2)O and Br _(2)O` in decreasing order of their bond angles.

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To arrange `OF2`, `Cl2O`, and `Br2O` in decreasing order of their bond angles, we will analyze the molecular geometry and the factors affecting bond angles, such as electronegativity and lone pair repulsion. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Central Atom**: In all three molecules (`OF2`, `Cl2O`, and `Br2O`), the central atom is oxygen (O). 2. **Determine the Number of Lone Pairs on Oxygen**: ...
