The correct order of increasing bond length of C-H, C-O, C-C and C=C is

  1. C-H < C=C < C-O < C-C
  2. C-C < C=C < C-O < C-H
  3. C-O < C-H < C-C < C=C
  4. C-H < C-O < C-C < C=C

Answer

(1) C-H < C=C < C-O < C-C

Solution

As per NCERT (Table 4.2), average bond lengths are:

C-H: 107 pm; C=C: 134 pm; C-O: 143 pm; C-C: 154 pm

H is the smallest atom, so C–H is the shortest; a double bond is shorter than a single bond; O is smaller than C, so C–O < C–C.

C-H < C=C < C-O < C-C

Answer: (1)
