Calculate the bond length for each of the following single bonds, using covalent radii (Table 9.4):
- a C─H
- b S─Cl
- c Br─Cl
- d Si─O
(a)
Interpretation:
The bond lengths of the given bonds has to be calculated using covalent radii.
Concept introduction:
Bond length: bond order and bond length is inversely proportional to each other.
Bond length is increase means the bond order decreases.
Answer to Problem 9.81QP
The length of the
Explanation of Solution
The length of the
The both covalent radii of the Carbon and Hydrogen are added then we get the length of the
(b)
Interpretation:
The bond lengths of the given bonds has to be calculated using covalent radii.
Concept introduction:
Bond length: bond order and bond length is inversely proportional to each other.
Bond length is increase means the bond order decreases.
Answer to Problem 9.81QP
The length of the
