Chemistry · CHEMICAL BONDING AND MOLECULAR STRUCTURE

हिन्दी

For a chlorine molecule (\( \text{Cl}_2 \)), the covalent radius and van der Waals radius are respectively:

  1. A
    \( 198\text{ pm} \) and \( 360\text{ pm} \)
  2. B
    \( 99\text{ pm} \) and \( 180\text{ pm} \)
  3. C
    \( 180\text{ pm} \) and \( 99\text{ pm} \)
  4. D
    \( 99\text{ pm} \) and \( 198\text{ pm} \)
View Answer & Solution

Correct answer · Option B

\( 99\text{ pm} \) and \( 180\text{ pm} \)

Explanation

The covalent radius of chlorine is half the bond distance (\( 198/2 = 99\text{ pm} \)) and the van der Waals radius is half the non-bonded internuclear distance (\( 360/2 = 180\text{ pm} \)).
