Question

Choose the correct option for carbonyl fluoride with respect to bond angle and bond length:                a)b)c)d)Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Answer

Double bond take up a little more space, so F-C-F bond angel is less than F-C-O.

COF2 has not a equivalent resonating structure as CO^-3. Because on Delocalising of e , F will get +ve charge, become unstable. C-O has double bond and C-F has single bond.
