Consider the Lewis structure of IF2−, what is the bond angle between F─I─F?

A. = 109.5o

B. < 109.5o

C. = 180o

D. = 120o

E. < 120o

♦ Relevant knowledge

The bond angle in molecules are determined by the shape or geometry of the structure of the molecule. Its shape could be predicted using concepts of the valence-shell electron pair theory of repulsion. This is the theory of repulsion between the nonbonding and bonding valence electrons within the molecules.
