  • question_answer
    Bond length of \[(O-O)\] in the following molecules is
    (I)  \[K{{O}_{2}}\]                            
    (II) \[{{O}_{2}}[As{{F}_{6}}]\]              
    (III) \[{{O}_{2}}\]                             
    (IV) \[N{{a}_{2}}{{O}_{2}}\]

    A) \[IV>I>III>II\]    

    B) \[II>III>I>IV\]   

    C)      \[I>III>IV>II\]   

    D)      \[III>II>IV>I\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

      [a] (I) \[K{{O}_{2}}\] has \[{{O}_{2}}^{\Theta }\] (superoxide ion). Bond order \[=1.5\] (II) \[{{O}_{2}}[As{{F}_{6}}]\] has \[{{O}_{2}}^{\oplus }\] (Dioxygenyl ion). Bond order \[=2.5\] (III)  \[{{O}_{2}},\] Bond order = 2 (IV) \[N{{a}_{2}}{{O}_{2}}\]has \[{{O}_{2}}^{2-}\] (peroxide ion). Bond order = 1 Higher the B.O, smaller is the bond length Hence order of bond length is: \[IV>I>III>II\] (i.e,. \[{{O}_{2}}^{2-}>{{O}_{2}}^{\Theta }>{{O}_{2}}>{{O}_{2}}^{\oplus }\])
