The correct Answer is:
To determine the decreasing order of O-O bond lengths in the given molecules, we need to analyze the bond order of each molecule. The bond length is inversely related to the bond order; thus, a higher bond order corresponds to a shorter bond length. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Molecules**: The molecules we need to consider are O2, KO2, Na2O2, and O2ASF6. 2. **Determine the Total Electrons**: - O2 has 16 electrons (8 from each oxygen). - KO2 has 17 electrons (16 from O2 and 1 from the extra electron due to the negative charge). - Na2O2 has 18 electrons (16 from O2 and 2 from the two sodium ions). - O2ASF6 has 15 electrons (16 from O2 and 1 less due to the positive charge). 3. **Determine the Bond Order**: - **For O2**: - Bonding electrons = 10, Anti-bonding electrons = 6 - Bond order = (10 - 6) / 2 = 2 - **For KO2**: - Bonding electrons = 10, Anti-bonding electrons = 7 (due to the extra electron in anti-bonding) - Bond order = (10 - 7) / 2 = 1.5 - **For Na2O2**: - Bonding electrons = 10, Anti-bonding electrons = 8 (due to two extra electrons in anti-bonding) - Bond order = (10 - 8) / 2 = 1 - **For O2ASF6**: - Bonding electrons = 10, Anti-bonding electrons = 5 (due to the loss of one electron) - Bond order = (10 - 5) / 2 = 2.5 4. **Rank the Bond Orders**: - O2ASF6: Bond order = 2.5 - O2: Bond order = 2 - KO2: Bond order = 1.5 - Na2O2: Bond order = 1 5. **Determine the Bond Length Order**: - Since bond length is inversely proportional to bond order, the order of bond lengths from longest to shortest is: - Na2O2 (longest) - KO2 - O2 - O2ASF6 (shortest) ### Final Answer: The decreasing order of O-O bond lengths is: **Na2O2 > KO2 > O2 > O2ASF6**
