Arrange the following ions in the order ofdecreasing X -O bond length where X is the central atom

Arrange the following ions in the order ofdecreasing X -O bond length

1.	Arrange the following ions in the order ofdecreasing X -O bond length where X is the central atom
Answer» `ClO_(4)^(-_ , SO_(4)^(2-), PO_(4)^(3-), SiO_(4)^(4-)` `SiO_(4)^(4-) ,PO_(4)^(3-) , SO_(4)^(2-) , ClO_(4)^(-)` `SiO_(4)^(4-) , PO_(4)^(3-), ClO_(4)^(-) , SO_(4)^(2-)` `SiO_(4)^(2-), SO_(4)^(2-) , PO_(4)^(3-) , ClO_(4) ^(-)` Solution : Greater the bond order , SHORTER is the bond length. Hence X-O bond lengths will be in the order : `SiO_(4)^(4-) gt PO_(4)^(3-)gtSO_(4)^(2-) gt ClO_(4)^(-)`
