The bond angle in H_2 O is 105^@but in H_2 S is 92^@ . Explain the difference. |
|
Answer» Solution :The larger size of the S atom compared with O atom, minimises the elcectron REPULSIONS and allows the BONDS in `H_(2)S` to be more purely p-type. Moreover O in `H_(2)O` is `sp^(3)` hybridised but pure p-orbitals are USED by S of `H_(2)S` |
