bond angle

[Nan_Guan_1L]

quick question, does it mean that the chemical bonds are more stable if the bond angle is larger?

I'm not quite sure. I know the most stable structure for molecules spread their electron densities as far away as possible, so the bond angle is always the largest possible angle. I know bond strengths are determined on their bond order and their length. They can also be weakened by atoms with large electronegativities in the same molecule.

Hi! I think this is true because of the repulsion between electrons, so the bonds will be as far apart as possible. Hope this helps!

I think it might be because of the polar/nonpolarity of the molecule, rather than the angles, but someone could clarify!
