The correct order of C - O bond length among C O , C O 3 2 - , C O 2 is
Options
- AC O < C O 3 2 - < C O 2
- BC O 3 2 - < C O 2 < C O
- CC O < C O 2 < C O 3 2 -
- DC O 2 < C O 3 2 - < C O
Correct answer
C. C O < C O 2 < C O 3 2 -
Step-by-step solution
More single bond character in resonance hybrid, more is the bond length. Hence the increasing bond length is C O < C O 2 < C O 3 2 -
