The bond dissociation energy of -F in BF...

The bond dissociation energy of `-F` in `BF_(3)` is `646 kJ mol^(-1)` whereas that of `C-F` in `CF_(4)` is `515kJ mol^(-1)`. The correct reason for higher `B-F` bond dissociation energy as compared to that of `C-F` is

A

significant ` p pi - p pi ` interaction between B and F in `BF_3` whereas there is no possibility of such interaction between C and F in `CF_4`.

B

lower degree of ` p pi - p pi` interaction between B and F in `BF_3` than that between C and F in `CF_4`.

C

smaller size of B - atoms as compared to that of C-atom.

D

stronger `sigma` bond between B and F in `BF_3` as compared to that between C and F in `CF_4`.
