Question

evaluate understanding what did i learn? bond length and energy comparing the length of carbon - carbon covalent bonds what is the correct order of bond energies (from lowest to highest) for the following carbon - carbon bonds? a) c - c single bond < c = c double bond < c ≡ c triple bond b) c = c double bond < c ≡ c triple bond < c - c single bond c) c ≡ c triple bond < c = c double bond < c - c single bond d) c = c double bond < c - c single bond < c ≡ c triple bond

Explanation:

Looking at the values provided in the image:

• For \(C - C\) single bond, bond energy is \(347\ kJ/mol\).
• For \(C = C\) double bond, bond energy is \(614\ kJ/mol\).
• For \(C\equiv C\) triple bond, bond energy is \(839\ kJ/mol\).

Comparing these values \(347<614 < 839\), which means \(C - C\) single bond \(

Answer:

A. \(C - C\) single bond \(
