I think that it is 120 degree
chemistpk:
no its not 120...it's 109.28 because the ccl4 has tetrahedral structure.it has sp3 hybridization...and we know sp3 hybridization has 109.28 equivlent to109.5 angle

Answer:
The correct answer is 109.5 degrees
Explanation:
Based on VSEPR Theory ("Valence Shell 'Electron Pair Repulsion' Theory"), as stated by 'Ronald Gillespie' and 'Ronald Nyholm', the electron around the Carbon atom will be seen to 'repel' each other.
As a result, these electrons will be pushed apart from each other, giving the 'CCl4 molecule' a 'tetrahedral molecular' geometry or shape. The 'CCl4 bond angle' will be near approximately '109.5 degrees' since it has a 'tetrahedral molecular geometry.'
