Out of H_{2}O and H_{2}S, which one has a higher bond angle and why?

Answers (1)

Due to higher electronegativity of Oxygen than Sulphur, O-H bond will have a higher electron density closer to the Oxygen atom. The two O-H bonds will repel each other more strongly than S-H bond leading to a larger bond angle in H_{2}O.
