What is the value of the bond angles in sicl4?
enter the bond angle of the molecule.

part b) what is the value of the smallest bond angle in icl4-?
enter the bond angle of the molecule.

part c) what is the value of the bond angles in alcl3?
enter the bond angle of the molecule.

part d) what is the value of the bond angles in xecl2?
enter the bond angle of the molecule.

Part A) 109.5 degrees Part B) 90 degrees Part C) 120 degrees Part D) 180 degrees

Explanation:

In order to determine the molecular geometry of compounds, the lone electron pair and number of atoms attached to the central atom are considered. Thus:

Part A) For SiCl4, it has a tetrahedral molecular geometry, therefore the bond angles are 109.5 degrees.

Part B) For ICI4-, it has a square planar molecular geometry and the value of the smallest bond angle is 90 degrees.

Part C) For AlCl3, it has a trigonal planar molecular geometry and its bond angle is 120 degrees.

Part D) For XeCl2, it has a linear molecular geometry and its bond angle is 180 degrees.
