Given below are two statements : Statement I : A hypothetical diatomic molecule with bond order zero is quite stable. Statement II : As bond order increases, the bond length increase. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :

Options

  1. ABoth Statement I and Statement II are true
  2. BBoth Statement I and Statement II are false
  3. CStatement I is true but Statement II are false
  4. DStatement I is false but Statement II are true

Correct answer

B. Both Statement I and Statement II are false

Step-by-step solution

. array l He ₂ Be ₂ Ne ₂ array aligned & Bond order =0 (does not exist) & Statement I is false aligned Bond order 1 Bond length Statement II is false
