Question:medium

The bond angles in the following molecules decreases in the order \( BF_3, NH_3, PF_3 \) and \( XeF_2 \)

Show Hint

More lone pairs decrease bond angleLinear molecules have maximum bond angle (180°).
Updated On: May 6, 2026
  • \( NH_3 > PF_3 > XeF_2 > BF_3 \)
  • \( XeF_2 > BF_3 > NH_3 > PF_3 \)
  • \( BF_3 > NH_3 > XeF_2 > PF_3 \)
  • \( PF_3 > BF_3 > NH_3 > XeF_2 \)
Show Solution

The Correct Option is B
