The bond dissociation energy (E) and bond length (R) of O ₂, ~N ₂ and F ₂ follow the order as:
Correct answer
2
Step-by-step solution
Greater the bond order, shorter is the bond length and thus, stronger is the bond. Since, for the given molecules, bond order follows the trend array ccc N ₂ & > O ₂ & > F ₂ ( ~B . O =3) & ( B . O =2) & ( B . O =1) array Thus, the bond length decreases as F ₂> O ₂> N ₂ and bond dissociation energy follows the trend N ₂> O ₂> F ₂
