Solution

The correct option is C

Br2 >Cl2 >F2 >H2


Generally, first we have to check for the bond order of every molecule.

HH,FF,ClCl,BrBr

Here, we can see that

Bond order = 1 (for all)

Now, we know that covalent radius for molecules will be in order

Br2> Cl2> F2> H2 [Because value of principal quantum number(n) is increasing]

Therefore, for Bond length also,

Br2> Cl2> F2> H2
