Assertion : H-S-H bond angle in H(2)S i...

Assertion : H-S-H bond angle in `H_(2)S` is closer to `90^(@)` but H-O-H bond angle in `H_(2)O` is `104.5^(@)`
Reason: lp-lp repulsion is stronger in `H_(2)S` than in `H_(2)O`

A

If both assertion and reason are correct, and reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are correct , but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

C

If assertion is correct, but reason is incorrect .

D

If both assertion and reason are incorrect.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
b
Correct explanation . Bond pair -bond pair
repulsion are greater in `H_(2)O` than in `H_(2)S` because
O-atom is smaller in size than S-atom .
