Question:

Arrange the following bonds according to their average bond energies in descending order: $\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{Cl}, \mathrm{C}-\mathrm{Br}, \mathrm{C}-\mathrm{F}, \mathrm{C}-\mathrm{I}$

  1. $\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{F}>\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{Cl}>\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{Br}>\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{I}$

  2. $\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{Br}>\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{I}>\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{C} 1>\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{F}$

  3. $\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{I}>\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{Br}>\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{Cl}>\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{F}$

  4. $\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{Cl}>\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{Br}>\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{I}>\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{F}$

Correct Option:

Solution:

Generally, bond energy $\propto \frac{1}{\text { Bond length }}$

So bond energy order is $\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{F}>\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{Cl}>\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{Br}>\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{I}$
