    The maximum bond angle in hydrides of group 16-elements is in:

    A)  \[{{H}_{2}}Te\]                

    B)  \[{{H}_{2}}Se\]

    C)  \[{{H}_{2}}S\]                  

    D)  \[{{H}_{2}}O\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                    As we move down the group, the bond angle decrease due to decrease in bond pair-bond pair repulsion.                                           \[Bond\text{ }angle\text{ }\begin{matrix}    {{H}_{2}}O  \\    {{104.5}^{o}}  \\ \end{matrix}\text{ }\begin{matrix}    {{H}_{2}}S  \\    {{92.2}^{o}}  \\ \end{matrix}\text{ }\begin{matrix}    {{H}_{2}}Se  \\    {{91}^{o}}  \\ \end{matrix}\text{ }\begin{matrix}    {{H}_{2}}Te  \\    {{90}^{o}}  \\ \end{matrix}\]
