As electronegativity of P is much lower than N-xA0-so in NH3 nitrogen attracts all bond electron towards the centre and electron-electron repulsion is higher so it has a higher bond angle-xA0-Bond angle in ammonia is 107 -amp- that in phosphene is 93-5-

The bond angle in $P H_{3}$ is:
much lesser than $N H_{3}$
equal to that in $N H_{3}$
much greater than in $N H_{3}$
slightly more than in $N H_{3}$

As electronegativity of $P$ is much lower than $N$ , so in $N H_{3}$ nitrogen attracts all bond electron towards the centre and electron-electron repulsion is higher so it has a higher bond angle. Bond angle in ammonia is 107 & that in phosphene is 93.5.
