Answer:
please mark me as BRAIN LIST
Explanation:
the observe result can be explained in terms of π back bonding that is 2 p π and 3D π . this type of bonding occurs in ocl2 because of this presence of the vacant 3D orbital in CL. ... In of2 the bond angle will be guided only by the electronegativity rule.

Answer:
OCl2 has backbonding because it satisfies the 4 conditions of backbondings
Explanation:
The 4 conditions of backbonding are
1. One atom should be from the 2nd period
2. Another atom should be from the 2nd or 3rd period
3. One atom should have a lone pair
4. Another atom should have a vacant orbital
In case of OCl2, oxygen has a lone pair in 2p orbital and chlorine has a vacant 3d orbital.
