Assuming pure 2s and 2p orbitals of carbon are used in forming CH4 molecule, which of the following statement is false?
(1) Three C—H bonds will be at right angle
(2) One C—H bond will be weaker than other three C—H bonds
(3) The shape of molecule will be tetrahedral
(4) The angle of C—H bond formed by s−s overlapping will be uncertain with respect to other three bonds.
