A : The O - O bond length in H(2)O(2) is...

A : The O - O bond length in `H_(2)O_(2)` is shorter than that of `O_(2)F_(2)`
R : `H_(2)O_(2)` is an ionic compound.

A

If the both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion

B

If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion

C

If assertion is true but reason is false

D

If both assertion and reason are false statements.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`O_2F_2` has the similar structure as that of `H_2O_2` but the O-O bond length is shorter in `O_2F_2` than in `H_2O_2`. This due to high electronegativity of attached F-atoms.
