The H-C-C bond angle in ethene is
Correct answer: B. 120°
- A. 60°
- B. 120°
- C. 90°
- D. 180°
Explanation
As ethene has sp2 hybridization hence the bond angle between H and C atom connected to same C will be 120

About Hybridization
Hybridization explains bonding by combining atomic orbitals to form equivalent hybrid orbitals with definite geometries. Coverage includes sp, sp², sp³, sp³d and sp³d² hybridization, their shapes and bond angles, and the relation of sigma and pi bonds to molecular structure.
