Which of the two peroxide ion or superoxide ion has larger bond length ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine which ion has a larger bond length between the peroxide ion (O2^2-) and the superoxide ion (O2^-), we will analyze their bond orders. The bond length is inversely proportional to the bond order, meaning that a higher bond order corresponds to a shorter bond length. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Ions**: - Peroxide ion: O2^2- - Superoxide ion: O2^- ...

On exposure to air, alkali metals get tranished due to formation of oxides, hydroxides and carbonates on their surface. When heated in air or oxygen they burn vigourously forming different types of oxides depending upon the nature of the metal. The formation and stability of these metals can be explained on the basis of size of alkali metal ion and the anion. Peroxides are colourless, while superoxides are coloured. The normal oxides are basic while peroxides and superoxides act as oxidising agents. On heating in excess of oxygen, potassium gives
