1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data
I need help rationalizing the following:
a) Bond angle for H2S is only 92o whereas bond angle for H2O is 104.5o.
b) If bond-pair<-> bond-pair repulsion is maximum for the C-H bonds in CH3X, ∑ all bond angles is 450o for CH3X
c) For CH2Br2, the H-C-Br will be the smallest bond angle observed.
2. Relevant equations
main considerations:
a) magnitude of central atom non-bonding pairs<->single bonding pairs repulsion w/ bonding-pair <-> bonding pair.
b) I got nothing
c) Br- Br repulsion? Magnitude of Br
3. The attempt at a solution
see main considerations
I realize this is a lot. I appreciate any help/ guidance from someone with a firm grasp on this stuff.
Thanks in advance.
