Questions
Which of the following statement is true for?
detailed solution
Correct option is D
The sulphur atom is hybridized and bonding takes place in ground state. Two filled orbitals and
has coordinated bond, S from gives lone pair and B receives it.
Bond angle difference leads to form hydrogen bonds in water.
so that two lone pairs of oxygen in water engaged in hydrogen bond.
Formation of hydrogen bonds reduce the lone pair - bond pair repulsion. That's why bond angle is greater in water when compare to hydrogen sulfide. In the hybrid, orbitals are bigger than and so the bond pair-bond pair repulsion decreases.
Hence, the option D is correct.
