Detailed Solution

The correct options regarding $O_{2} F_{2}$ and ${Cl}_{2} O_{2}$ are,

i) According to the electronegative property, $O - Cl$ bond is longer than $O - F$ and $O - O$ bond in $O_{2} F_{2}$ is shorter than $O - O$ bond in ${Cl}_{2} O_{2}$ .

ii) The bond length is inversely proportional to bond angle. So, $Cl - O - O$ bond angle is more than $F - O - O$ bond angle.

iii) The name of ${Cl}_{2} O_{2}$ should be dichlorine dioxide.

Thus, the correct option are a,b,c and d.
