Which has greater bond angle `PF_(3) or NF_(3)` ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine which molecule has a greater bond angle between PF₃ and NF₃, we need to analyze the molecular structures and the factors affecting bond angles in these compounds. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Central Atoms**: - In PF₃, the central atom is phosphorus (P). - In NF₃, the central atom is nitrogen (N). ...
