The bond angles of `NH_(3),NH_(4)^(o+)` and `overset(Theta)(NH_(2)` are in the order .A. `NH_(2)^(-)gtNH_(3)gtNH_(4)^(+)`B. `NH_(4)^(+)gtNH_(3)gtNH_(2)^(-)`C. `NH_(3)gtNH_(2)^(-)gtNH_(4)^(+)`D. `NH_(3)gtNH_(4)^(+)gtNH_(2)^(-)` |
Answer» (b) As the number of lone pairs of electrons increases, bond angle decreases. Therefore, the order of bond angle is `{:(NH_(4)^(+),gt,NH_(3),gt,NH_(2)^(-)),(nolp,,1lp,,2lp):}` |
