The correct order of increasing C-O bond length of CO, CO_(3)^(2-) , CO_(2) is

Answer»

`CO_(3)^(2-) lt CO_(2)lt CO`
`CO_(2) lt CO_(3)^(2-) lt CO`
`CO lt CO_(3)^(2-) lt CO_(2)`
`CO lt CO_(2) lt CO_(3)^(2-)`

SOLUTION :The structures of the GIVEN species are

Thus, `CO_(2)` CONTAINS bond , `CO_(2)` contains
DOUBLE bond while `CO_(3)^(2-)` contains between singleltbegt and double bond . Hence , C-Obond LENGTHS will
be in the order : `CO lt CO_(2) lt CO_(3)^(2-)`
