The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the bond lengths of the O-O bond in \( H_2O_2 \) and \( O_2F_2 \), we will analyze the molecular structures and the factors affecting the bond lengths. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Structures**: - \( H_2O_2 \) (Hydrogen Peroxide) has a structure where two oxygen atoms are bonded to each other and also to hydrogen atoms. - \( O_2F_2 \) (Dioxygen Difluoride) has a structure where two oxygen atoms are bonded to each other and also to fluorine atoms. 2. **Understand the Bonding**: - In \( H_2O_2 \), the bond between the two oxygen atoms is influenced by the presence of hydrogen, which is less electronegative. - In \( O_2F_2 \), the bond between the two oxygen atoms is influenced by the presence of fluorine, which is highly electronegative. 3. **Consider Electronegativity and Bond Character**: - According to the bent rule, the bond character is affected by the electronegativity of the atoms involved. Fluorine, being more electronegative than hydrogen, pulls electron density towards itself. - This results in a higher p-character in the O-O bond in \( O_2F_2 \) due to the influence of fluorine. 4. **Analyze Bond Lengths**: - The higher the p-character in a bond, the longer the bond length tends to be. In \( O_2F_2 \), the O-O bond length is shorter due to the strong pull from the electronegative fluorine atoms. - In \( H_2O_2 \), the O-O bond length is longer because the hydrogen atoms do not exert the same strong pull on the oxygen atoms. 5. **Conclusion**: - The bond length of the O-O bond in \( H_2O_2 \) is approximately 1.48 Å, while in \( O_2F_2 \), it is approximately 1.22 Å. - Therefore, the O-O bond length in \( H_2O_2 \) is greater than that in \( O_2F_2 \). ### Final Answer: The O-O bond length in \( H_2O_2 \) is greater than that in \( O_2F_2 \), with values of approximately 1.48 Å and 1.22 Å, respectively.
