Question

7. The F-F bond is weak because :
(1) The repulsion between the nonbonding pairs of electrons of two fluorine atoms is large
(2) The ionization energy of the fluorine atom is very low
(3) The length of the F-F bond much larger than the bond lengths in other halogen molecules
() The F-F bond distance is small and hence the internuclear repulsion between the two F atoms is veny
low​

Answer 1

Answer:

(1)

Explanation:

Flourine has a very small size and short bond length . Therefore, due to significant repulsion between lone pairs , the bond becomes weak.
