explain in detail, what the theoretical angle of the h-c-o bond angle in h2co is and explain the chemistry behind why the actual h-c-o bond angle in h2co is 122o . [3-points]

Answer :

The every atom in H₂CO molecule has bond angle is 120 °. the bond angle HCH is 116 ° and The bond angle of H₂CO is 122°.

The H₂CO has trigonal planar molecular geometry. the H₂CO has the same electron geometry that is trigonal planar. The every atom atom attached to the central atom has bond angle is  120 °. the central atom is surrounded by three regions of the electron density. according to the VSEPR theory the molecular geometry is trigonal planar. The  H₂CO is the polar molecular. the hybridization is sp².

Thus, the bond angle in  H₂CO is 120 ° and the molecular geometry is trigonal planar.
