Hydrogen Peroxide

Question

Statement 1 : H₂O₂ is non-ionic compound.
Statement 2 : The $O - O$ bond length in H₂O₂ is shorter than that of O₂F₂.

Moderate

A

Both Statement 1 and Statement 2 are true.
B

Statement 1 is true and Statement 2 is false.
C

Statement 1 is false and Statement 2 is true.
D

Both Statement 1 and Statement 2 are false.

Solution

Due to more electronegative atom like ‘F’ the positive charge generate on oxygen resulting increase in bond order and decrease in bond length. In H₂O₂ , oxygen get -ve charge due to this bond order decreases and bond length increases.
