In phosphorus difluoride trichloride (PF₂Cl₃), the phosphorus atom is the central atom surrounded by two fluorine atoms and three chlorine atoms. The molecular geometry is based on a trigonal bipyramidal arrangement, due to the five electron pairs around the phosphorus. The bond angles are approximately 120 degrees for the equatorial fluorine-chlorine bonds and about 90 degrees for the axial positions involving chlorine atoms. However, the presence of different atoms can slightly distort these ideal angles.
In sulfur hexafluoride (SF6), the molecular geometry is octahedral. The approximate bond angles between the fluorine atoms are 90 degrees. Additionally, the angles between the axial and equatorial fluorine atoms are 180 degrees. Overall, the symmetrical arrangement ensures that all fluorine atoms are evenly spaced around the central sulfur atom.
The bond angles in IF4^- (iodine tetrafluoride) are approximately 90 degrees.
In iodine tribromide (IBr₃), iodine undergoes sp³d hybridization due to its presence as the central atom with five regions of electron density (three bonding pairs with bromine and two lone pairs). The approximate bond angles are around 90 degrees between the bromine atoms, as the molecule adopts a T-shaped geometry due to the presence of the lone pairs. The lone pairs occupy the axial positions, pushing the bromine atoms closer together, resulting in this geometry.
The value of the bond angle in XeF2 is 180 degrees.
The bond angle in PH4 is higher than PH3 because PH4 has a tetrahedral molecular geometry with bond angles of about 109.5 degrees, while PH3 has a trigonal pyramidal molecular geometry with bond angles of about 107 degrees. This difference in bond angles is due to the presence of an additional hydrogen atom in PH4 compared to PH3.
90 and 180 are the approximate bond angles.

The approximate bond angle for OCS is around 178 degrees.
The approximate bond angles in CHClO are around 109.5 degrees for the H-C-Cl bond angle, 107 degrees for the C-Cl-O bond angle, and 104.5 degrees for the H-C-O bond angle, following the expected tetrahedral geometry around carbon.
The approximate bond angles for BrF5 is approximately 90 degrees because there would be one lone pair of electrons left over, making the molecular shape square pyramidal... This gives an approximate bond angle of 90 degrees. AX5E, sp3d2 hybridized.
For a truly trigonal planar molecule the bond angles are 120 0 exactly.
In sulfur hexafluoride (SF6), the molecular geometry is octahedral. The approximate bond angles between the fluorine atoms are 90 degrees. Additionally, the angles between the axial and equatorial fluorine atoms are 180 degrees. Overall, the symmetrical arrangement ensures that all fluorine atoms are evenly spaced around the central sulfur atom.
In NOCl, the approximate bond angles are 107 degrees between the N-O bond and the N-Cl bond due to the lone pairs on the nitrogen causing repulsion and pushing the bonding pairs closer together, resulting in a slight compression of the angle from the ideal 120 degrees for trigonal planar geometry.
In formaldehyde (H₂C=O), the carbon atom is sp² hybridized, resulting in a trigonal planar geometry around the carbon. The approximate bond angles in this molecule are around 120 degrees. The oxygen atom also contributes to this planar arrangement, with the hydrogen atoms positioned symmetrically around the carbon atom.
