The bond lengths of diatomic molecules of elements $\mathrm{X}, \mathrm{Y}$ and Z respectively are 143,110 and 121 pm . The atomic numbers of X . Y and Z respectively are:
  1. $9,7,8$
  2. $7,8,9$
  3. $9,8,7$
  4. $7,9,8$

Solution

We know that Bond order $\propto \frac{1}{\text { Bond Length }}$ Bond order of a diatomic increases it bonds length will be decrease
