Q. Why repulsion between The Lone pair and lone pair is so strong or The Lone pair and Bond pair is quite less than that from repulsion of that of lone pair and lone pair and that of the bond pair and Bond pair is very less repulsion between them all why is a person is ovarian between these all types of fonts please explain it briefly

Q. Given below are two statements labelled as Assertion (A) and Reason (R).
Assertion (A): The bond angle in alcohol is slightly more than the tetrahedral angle.

Reason (R): Variation in bond angle of alcohol is due to the repulsion between the unshared electron pair of oxygen.

Q. Assertion: All

F - S - F

S F_{4}

are greater than

90^{o}

180^{o}

.
Reason: The lone pair-bond pair repulsion is weaker than bond pair-bond pair repulsion.
