Question

question 27 (1 point) which molecule shape has a bond angle of 120 degrees? tetrahedral linear trigonal planar trigonal pyramidal bent

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In molecular geometry, a trigonal - planar molecule has three bonding pairs of electrons around the central atom, and the bond angles between these pairs are 120 degrees. A tetrahedral molecule has bond angles of approximately 109.5 degrees, a linear molecule has a bond angle of 180 degrees, a trigonal - pyramidal molecule has bond angles less than 109.5 degrees (due to the presence of a lone pair), and a bent molecule has bond angles that vary depending on the number of lone pairs but are generally less than 120 degrees.

Answer:

C. Trigonal Planar
