Most Important Selected Qs for JEE AdvancedChemistryChemical Bonding and Molecular Structure
Among the following which one will have the largest O - O bond length?
Options
- AKO ₂
- BO ₂
- CO ₂⁺ [ AsF ₆ ]⁻
- DK ₂ O ₂
Correct answer
D. K ₂ O ₂
Step-by-step solution
Bond order of O ₂⁻, O ₂, O ₂ ⁺ and O ₂ ²⁻ are 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 and 1.0 respectively. Bond length is inversely proportional to bond order. O - O bond length is largest in K ₂ O ₂ .
