1.

i. Arrange the following in decreasing order of bond dissociation enthalpy F2 , Cl2 , Br2 , I2 ii. Bi does not form pπ-pπ bonds. Give reason for the observation.iii.Electron gain enthalpy of oxygen is less negative than sulphur. Justify

Answer»

i. Arrange the following in decreasing order of bond dissociation enthalpy Cl2 > Br2 > F2 > I

ii. Bi does not form pπ-pπ bonds as its atomic orbitals are large and diffuse so effective overlapping is not possible

iii. Due to small size of oxygen, it has greater electron electron repulsions
