The decreasing order of the repulsive interaction of electron pairs is (Here, lp = lone pair, bp = bond pair)

a
l p-l p>l p-b p>b p-b p
b
l p-b p>l p-l p>b p-b p
c
l p-l p>b p-b p>l p-b p
d
b p-b p>l p-l p>l p-b p

detailed solution

Correct option is A

According to VSEPR theoty, the repulsive interaction of electron pairs decrease in the order.Lone pair (lp)- lone pair (lp) > lone pair (lp) - bond pair (bp) > bond pair (bp) - bond pair (bp).
