Question

Given below are two statements:Statement I: The number of species among ${BF}_{4}^{-},{SiF}_{4},{XeF}_{4}$ and ${SF}_{4}$, that have unequal $E - F$ bond lengths is two. Here, E is the central atom.Statement II: Among $O_{2}^{-},O_{2}^{2 -},F_{2}$ and $O_{2}^{+},O_{2}^{-}$has the highest bond order.In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below

Accepted Answer

In ${BF}_{4}^{-},{SiF}_{4}$ and ${XeF}_{4}$ all bond lengths are identical Molecules B.O. $$O_{2}^{+}$$ $$ightarrow$$ 2.5 $$O_{2}^{-}$$ $$ightarrow$$ 1.5 $$O_{2}^{2 -}$$ $$ightarrow$$ 1 $${	ext{ }F}_{2}$$ $$ightarrow$$ 1
