The correct bond angle of
Concept introduction:
The bond angle can be defined as the formation of an angle between two atoms which are joined together. In one compound, there is one or more type of atoms linked together by a bond through sharing of electron. The angle found in between two bonds or two bonded electrons which shares atoms in a compound. This is known as the bond angle.
