Q11 / 160 · AP EAMCET 2019 (20 Apr Shift 1) · Chemistry
Which one of the following properties has same value for \(\mathrm{H}_2\) and \(\mathrm{D}_2\) ?
- ADensity
- BEnthalpy of bond dissociation
- Correct answerCBond length
- DMelting point
Solution
Bond length depends upon the electrostatic force of attraction. Substituting a different isotope in the atom should not change the bond length. Since, the electrical environment around the isotope is identical.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
