Chemical Bonding And Molecular Structure Question 39

Question: Among the species : CO2,CH3COO, CO,CO32, HCHO which has the weakest carbon- oxygen bond [Kerala PMT 2004]

Options:

A) CO2

B) CH3COO

C) CO

D) CO32

E) HCHO

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

Among the given species. The bond dissociation energy of CO bond is minimum in case of CO32 by which CO bond become more weaker in CO32 or the bond order of CO32 (1.33) is minimum so the bond become weaker.
