Vedclass · Answer

(B) The bond angle depends on the hybridization and the number of lone pairs of electrons on the central atom. $1$. $CH_4$: $sp^3$ hybridization,tetrahedral geometry,bond angle = $109.5^{\circ}$. $2$. $CO_2$: $sp$ hybridization,linear geometry,bond angle = $180^{\circ}$. $3$. $H_2O$: $sp^3$ hybridization with $2$ lone pairs,bent geometry,bond angle = $104.5^{\circ}$. $4$. $SO_2$: $sp^2$ hybridization with $1$ lone pair,bent geometry,bond angle $\approx 119^{\circ}$. Comparing these,$CO_2$ has the highest bond angle of $180^{\circ}$.

Among $CH_4$,$CO_2$,$H_2O$ and $SO_2$,the bond angle is the highest in
