Question

The bond angle for an sp hybrid orbital is smaller than the bond angle for an sp2 hybrid orbital.

Answer 1

Answer:

in sp2 hybridization the bond is extendendd high due to polarity hence is smaller than sp hybridization.

Answer 2

Answer:

Benzene is the archetypical aromatic compound. It is planar, bond angles=120º, all carbon atoms in the ring are sp2 hybridized, and the pi-orbitals are occupied by 6 electrons. The aromatic heterocycle pyridine is similar to benzene, and is often used as a weak base for scavenging protons. Furan and pyrrole have heterocyclic five-membered rings, in which the heteroatom has at least one pair of non-bonding valence
