Question

Which bond would require more energy to break apart? (Short bond or Long bond). Explain

a) longer bond. because the charges are further apart
b) shorter bond. because the charges are closer together
c) shorter bond. because the charges are both positive
d) longer bond. because the charges are closer together

Answer 1

shorter bond, because charges are close apart

Step-by-step explanation:

shorter the bond length more is the energy required to break the bond for example if you take three pencils of different sizes one longer One medium sized One Shot sized if you try to break them the longer pencil will break much faster than the other two because the greater the length the lesser the strength the lesser energy you need to apply to break them apart ...
