Answer is: bond angle in propane is closest to 109°.

Propane is alkane, organic compound. Carbons in propane have sp3 hybridization (carbon’s 2s and three 2p orbitals combine into four identical sp3 orbitals). Orbitals in sp3 hybridization have <span>a tetrahedral arrangement and form single (sigma) bonds.</span>

Propane has a molecular formula C3H8.

It is of the form CnH2n+2.
where n = number of C atoms. In present case n = 3.

Each carbon atom in propane is sp3 hydribized. Thus, there are 4 hydrid orbital associated with each carbon atom

The central C atom is sigma bonded to two other carbon atoms and two hydrogen atoms.

Such, sp3 hydridized orbitals are spacial orientated at an  angle of 109^{0}28^{'}, in order to minimize repulsion between the electrons.

Hence, the c—c—c bond angle in propane, c3h8, is closest to 109^{0}28^{'}
