JEE Main2012ChemistryChemical Bonding and Molecular StructureActual
Among the following, the species having the smallest bond is
Options
- ANO ⁻
- BNO ⁺
- CO ₂
- DNO
Correct answer
B. NO ⁺
Step-by-step solution
NO ⁻(16)- B.O. -2 O ₂(16)- B.O. -2 NO ⁺(14)- B.O. -3 NO (15)- B.O. -2.5 Higher the bond order lower is the bond length. Hence NO ⁺ will have smallest bond.
