 In the given molecule choose the correct order of their angle.

A)  \[x>y>z\]            

B)  \[x<y<z\]

C)  \[x=y>z\]

D)  Can't be predicted

Correct Answer: A

Solution :

Therefore, repulsion between both \[C-O\] bonds will be greater than the repulsion between \[C-H\] bond and \[C-OH\] bond or between \[C-H\] and \[C=O\] bond. Repulsion between \[C-H\] and C = 0 bond is greater than that of between \[C-H\] and \[C-OH\]bond, because double bond character in \[C-OH\] bond will always be less than \[C=O\].
