The species, having bond angles at is
ClF
NCl
BCl
PH
To determine which species has bond angles of we need to consider the molecular geometry of each option.• Option 1: ClFClF has a T-shaped molecular geometry due to the presence of two lone pairs on the central chlorine atom.The bond angles are less than and not • Option 2: NClNCl has a trigonal pyramidal geometry due to one lone pair on the nitrogen atom.The bond angles are approximately not • Option 3: BClBCl has a trigonal planar geometry with no lone pairs on the boron atom.The bond angles are exactly • Option 4: PHPH has a trigonal pyramidal geometry due to one lone pair on the phosphorus atom.The bond angles are approximately not Therefore, the species with bond angles of is BClThis corresponds to Option 3.
