What does bond length exactly mean? Are double bonds stronger than single one?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

### Step-by-Step Solution: **Step 1: Define Bond Length** - Bond length is defined as the distance between the centers of two atoms that are covalently bonded to each other. It is a measure of how far apart the nuclei of the bonded atoms are. **Step 2: Understanding Single and Double Bonds** - A single bond involves the sharing of one pair of electrons between two atoms, while a double bond involves the sharing of two pairs of electrons. ...
