Chemical Bonding And Molecular Structure Question 371

Question: The correct order in which the O - O bond length increases in the following is

Options:

A) $ H_2O_2<O_2<O_3 $

B) $ O_2<H_2O_2<O_3 $

C) $ O_2<O_3<H_2O_2 $

D) $ O_3<H_2O_2<O_2 $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

$ H-O-O-H $ , $ O\rightarrow O=O $ , $ O=O $ Due to resonance in $ O_3 $

$ O-O $ bond length will be in b/w $ O=O $ and $ O-O $ .
