Bond energy `H-H,F-F and H-F` bonds are 104, 38 and 135 Kcal `"mol"^(-1)`, respectively. The resonance energy in the `H-F` molecule will beA. 142 Kcal `"mol"^(-1)`B. 66 kcal `"mol"^(-1)`C. `72.14` kcal `"mol"^(-1)`D. `79.26` kcal `"mol"^(-1)`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
Resonance energy,
`Delta _(H-F)=(BE)_(H-F)- sqrt((BE)_(H_(2))(BeE)_(F_(2)))`
`=135-sqrt(104xx38)`
`=135-62.86=72.14 "kcal mo"^(-1)`
