Question

The O–O bond length in oxygen gas is 1.20741 mc026-1.jpg 10–10 m. The atomic radius is exactly mc026-2.jpg of the O–O bond length. Which is the atomic radius of oxygen, correctly written in scientific notation with the correct number of significant figures?

Answer 1

the answer is 6.03705 x 10^-11

Answer 2

Answer:
`6.03705* 10^(-11) m` is atomic radius of an oxygen.

Step-by-step explanation:

The bond length of O-O bond =
`1.20741* 10^(-10) m`

The atomic radius oxygen will be given by:

`\frac{\text{Bond lenght}}{2}=(1.20741* 10^(-10) m)/(2)=6.03705* 10^(-11) m`

`6.03705* 10^(-11) m` is atomic radius of an oxygen.
