MCQ
In compound $X$, all the bond angles are exactly ${109^o}28',\,\,X$ is
- AChloromethane
- BIodoform
- ✓Carbon tetrachloride
- DChloroform
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
Carbon tetrachloride
(c) Compound is carbontetrachloride because $CC{l_4}$ has $s{p^3}$-hybridization $4$ orbitals giving regular tetrahedron geometry.
In others the geometry is little distorted inspite of $s{p^3}$ hybridization due to different atoms on the vertices of tetrahedron.
