Bond angle in PH4+ is higher that in PH_(3). Why?

Answer»

Solution : In both `PH_(4)^(+) and PH_(3)` , atom phosphorus is in `SP^(3)`.hybridised state. `PH_(4)^(+)`is TETRAHEDRAL in shape and bond angle is `109^(@) 28^(1)`In `PH_(3)`due to the presence of one lone pair of electrons bond angle deceases from tetrahedral angle.
