In the given molecule choose the correct order of their angle.             

A)  \[x>y>z\]                           

B)  \[x<y<z\]

C)  \[x=y>z\]                           

D)  Can't be predicted

Correct Answer: A

Solution :

Therefore, Repulsion between both C-O bonds will be greater than the repulsion between C - H bond and C - OH bond or between C - H and C = O bond. Repulsion between C - H and C = O bond is greater than that of between C - H and C - OH bond, because double bond character in C - OH bond will always be less than C = O.
