As the p - charcter increases the bond angle in in hydrid orbital formed by a and atomic orbitalsA. decreasesB. increasesC. doublesD. remains unchanged

Answer» Correct Answer - A
As p-character increases the bond angle decreases.
in sp-p-character `1/2` bond angle `-180^(@)`
In `sp^(2)`-p-character `2/3` , bond angle `-120^(@)`
In `sp^(3)`-p-character `3/4`, bond angle `109^(@)`
