Both the ∠ HCH and ∠ HCO bond angles of H2CO (formaldehyde) are very close to 120°, but one is slightly smaller than the other. Predict which is smaller, and explain your reasoning.

Methane has the ideal tetrahedral bond angle of 109.5 degrees. As one might expect ideal bond angles deviate when one or more H atoms are replaced by substituents. Would you expect the FCF bond angle of methylene fluoride to be larger or smaller than 109.5 degrees? Explain your reasoning

Do the same for for methylene chloride and the ClCCl bond angle and the FCF bond angle in vinylidine fluoride (1,1-difluoroethene)

Help please! Thank you!
