MTBE (Methyl tertiary butyl ether) is a constituent of Petrol. Its structural formula is shown below.
Correct answer: C. C
- A. A
- B. B
- C. C
- D. D
Explanation
The angle P(between CH3 and C)is 109.50.The carbon atom in the methyl group forms tetrahedral angles due to its four single bonds, including the one with the oxygen atom in the ether linkage. The angle between C and O (angle Q) is 1050.

About Chemical Bonding
Chemical bonding explains molecular shape through VSEPR theory and distinguishes sigma bonds from pi bonds. Questions involve hybridization, bond angles, dipole moment and bond energy, including how electron-pair repulsion determines geometry and how bond polarity differs from the overall polarity of a molecule.
