NTA Abhyas JEE Main2020Chemistryp Block Elements (Group 15, 16, 17 & 18)Practice
The correct order of C l - O bond lengths in C l O - , C l O 2 - , C l O 3 - and C l O 4 - is
Options
- AC l O - < C l O 2 - < C l O 3 - < C l O 4 -
- BC l O 4 - < C l O 3 - < C l O 2 - < C l O -
- CC l O 3 - < C l O 4 - > C l O 2 - > C l O -
- DC l O 4 - = C l O 3 - = C l O 2 - = C l O -
Correct answer
B. C l O 4 - < C l O 3 - < C l O 2 - < C l O -
Step-by-step solution
The correct order of C l - O bond lengths in C l O - , C l O 2 - , C l O 3 - and C l O 4 - is as follows C l O 4 - < C l O 3 - < C l O 2 - < C l O - Bond length ∝ 1 B o n d order or Bond length ∝ 1 Extent of delocalization
