Question

Bond dissociation energy of $F_2$ is less than $C{l}_2$.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Bond dissociation energy of $F_2$ is less than $C{l}_2$ because $F$ has high electronegativity due to which $F-F$ repels each other having lesser bond dissociation enthalpy than $C{l}_2$ where $Cl$ is less electronegative than $F$.
