1.	Which one of the following is the likely bond angles of sulphur tetrafluoride molecule?
Answer» `120^(@),80^(@)` `109^(@).28^(@)` `90^(@)` `89^(@),117^(@)` Solution :NORMAL bond angle in regular trigonal bipyramidal are `90^(@)` and `120^(@)`. DUE to p REPULSION, bond angle is reduced to `89^(@)`, `117^(@)` option (d).
