Textbook Question
Chapter 12, Problem 12.18P
Each carbon atom in ethane and in ethylene is surrounded by eight valence electrons and has four bonds to it. Explain how the VSEPR model (Section 3-10) predicts a bond angle of 109.5° about each carbon in ethane but an angle of 120° about each carbon in ethylene.
