NEET · Chemistry · STD 11 - 4. Chemical bonding and molecular structure
Given below are two statements
Statement I : A hypothetical diatomic molecule with bond order zero is quite stable.
Statement II : As bond order increases, the bond length increase.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
- A Both Statement I and Statement II are true
- B Both Statement I and Statement II are false
- C Statement I is true but Statement II are false
- D Statement I is false but Statement II are true
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Both Statement I and Statement II are false
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\left.\begin{array}{l} He _2 \\ Be _2 \\ Ne _2\end{array}\right\} \begin{array}{l}\text {Bond order}=0 \text { (does not exist) } \\ \text {Statement I is false}\end{array}\)
Bond order \(\propto \frac{1}{\text { Bond length }}\)
Statement II is false
Bond order \(\propto \frac{1}{\text { Bond length }}\)
Statement II is false
