As the radius of halogen increases C—halogen bond length increased.

Q. For the compounds
$C H_{3} Cl, C H_{3} B r, C H_{3} I$ and $C H_{3} F,$
the correct order of increasing $C$ -halogen bond length is :

$C H_{3} F < C H_{3} Cl < C H_{3} C < C H_{3} I$

$C H_{3} F < C H_{3} B r < C H_{3} Cl < C H_{3} I$

$C H_{3} F < C H_{3} Cl < C H_{3} B r < C H_{3} I$

$C H_{3} Cl < C H_{3} B r < C H_{3} F < C H_{3} I$

As the radius of halogen increases $C$ —halogen bond length increased.

Q. For the compounds CH3​Cl,CH3​Br,CH3​I and CH3​F, the correct order of increasing C-halogen bond length is :

CH3​F<CH3​Cl<CH3​C<CH3​I

CH3​F<CH3​Br<CH3​Cl<CH3​I

CH3​F<CH3​Cl<CH3​Br<CH3​I

CH3​Cl<CH3​Br<CH3​F<CH3​I
