Which one of the following halogens has the highest bond energy ?A. `F_2`B. `Cl_2`C. `Br_2`D. `I_2`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
Shorter the bond, stronger the bond, more its bond dissociation energy. However bond dissociation energy of `Cl_2` is more than `F_2`. This is despite the fact that F-F bond is shorter than Cl-Cl bond. Correct order of bond energies is `Cl_2 gt Br_2 gt F_ 2 gt I_2`
