Question

Arrange the following single bonds in increasing order of their bond lengths: $C-H, C-O, C-C, C=C$.

Answer: A

💡 Solution & Explanation

Bond length decreases with higher bond order (multiple bonds are shorter) and smaller atomic radii (H is very small). Thus, $C-H$ is shortest, followed by the double bond $C=C$, then the polar single bond $C-O$, and finally the non-polar $C-C$.
