Which of the following statements about ethene C 2 H 4 , is not correct?

EThe H-C-H bond angles in ethene are approximately 120° due to the sp^2 hybridization of the carbon atoms, not 109.5°. This makes statement A incorrect. Statement E correctly describes the bond angles in ethene, which contradicts the incorrect statement A.
