False statement about bond angles
Consider the molecules CH₄, NH₃ and H₂O. Which of the given statement is false?
SELECT ONE OPTION
A
The H–C–H bond angle in CH₄ is larger than the H–N–H bond angle in NH₃
B
The H–C–H bond angle in CH₄ the H–N–H bond angle in NH₃ and the H–O–H bond angle in H₂O are all greater than 90°.
C
Then H–O–H bond angle in H₂O is larger than the H–C–H bond angle in CH₄
D
The H–O–H bond angle in H₂O is smaller than the H–N–H bond angle in NH₃
