Answer 1

Answer:

the bond angle in ozone molecule is 1070

Answer 2

The bond angle in ozone is 117°.

BOND ANGLE -

• The average angle between the orbitals of two or more covalent bonds.
• The angle depends on the number of bonding and lone pairs.
• The size and electronegativity of the central atom and the size of the surrounding atoms.
• In ozone, each oxygen molecule has six valence electrons.
• The central atom is $sp^2$ hybridized so should have the bond angle of 120°.
• The central atom shows resonance and has one lone pair so the angle bent to 117°.
• The structure of the ozone molecule is bent and has a dipole moment.
