The electronegativities of carbon and chlorine are 2.5 and 3.00 respectively. Calculate the C-Cl bond length if C-C and Cl-Cl bond distances are 1.54`A^(@)` and 1.0`A^(@)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`d_(A-B) = r_A + r_B - 0.09 Delta_x`
Bond distance ` = (1.54)/(2) + (1.00)/(2) - 0.09 xx 1.00 = 1.18 A`
