Select the incorrect statement about the following
Options
- AO 3 molecular is angular in shape
- BIn O 3 , O – O bond length is identical with that of molecular oxygen
- CO 3 is used as germicide for purification of air
- DO 3 is an oxidizing agent
Correct answer
B. In O 3 , O – O bond length is identical with that of molecular oxygen
Step-by-step solution
In O 3 , O – O bond length is not identical with that of molecular oxygen. It is found to be intermediate of O – O and O == O bond length. This arises due to resonance. Rest all are correct features of ozone.
