Answer» i. Arrange the following in decreasing order of bond dissociation enthalpy Cl2 > Br2 > F2 > I2 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 |
