The reason is given below

  • Both the molecules i.e. H2O and F2O have bond pair and lone pair of electrons.
  • The difference between the two molecules is presence of highly electronegative element fluorine in F2O, which is replaced by hydrogen in H2O.
  • Thus the bond pair electrons are attracted towards fluorine in F2O while repelled towards oxygen in H2O.
  • This makes the bond angle smaller in F2O in comparison to H2O.
