The tetrahedral angle is the angle formed between two bonds in a tetrahedral molecular geometry. In this arrangement, a central atom is bonded to four other atoms, creating a three-dimensional shape. The ideal angle between any two bonds in this configuration is approximately 109.5 degrees. This geometry is commonly observed in molecules like methane (CH₄), where the carbon atom is at the center, and the four hydrogen atoms are positioned at the corners of a tetrahedron. The tetrahedral angle is significant in understanding molecular shapes and the behavior of various chemical compounds.
