What is the correct order of the bond angles shown in ascending order (smallest first)? :/
The double bond has higher electron density than a single bond..thus the double-bond -single bond repulsions are greater than the single bond -single bond, making the single bond -single bond angle smaller than either of the 2 double bond-single bond angles and thus smaller than 120 deg.
its C the answer
3>1>2
