The table given below lists the bond dissociation energy `(E_("diss"))` for single covalent bonds formed between C and atoms A, B, D, E.
`{:("Bond",,,E_("diss")("kcal mol"^(-1))),(C-A,,," "240),(C-B,,," "382),(C-D,,," "276),(C-E,,," "486):}`
Which of the atoms has smallest size ?

A

`D`

B

`E`

C

`A`

D

`B`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Smaller the atom, more effective will be the orbital overlap and larger will be bond dissociation energy.
