Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
It is known that length of a bond is inversely proportional to the bond strength. This also means that a single bond has long length due to which it is weak in nature.
And, a double bond is shorter in length and has more strength as compared to a single bond. Whereas a triple bond has the smallest length and it has high strength as compared to a double or single bond.
For example, carbon monoxide is CO where there is a triple bond between the carbon and oxygen atom.
Carbon dioxide is 
where there exists a double bond between the carbon and oxygen atom.
A carbonate ion is 
when two oxygen atoms are attached through single bond with the carbon atom and another oxygen atom is attached through a double bond to the carbon atom.
Hence, we can conclude that order of increasing bond strength of the given carbon oxygen bond is as follows.
Carbonate ion < carbon dioxide < carbon monoxide
I’d say A. They are theoretical in the fact that they have not been observed directly, but have been confirmed to exist through experimentation.
Answer: (3) The difference in electronegativity between carbon and oxygen is greater than that between fluorine and oxygen.
Explanation: Polarity of a molecule is due to the difference in electronegativity of the atoms. More is the electronegativity difference, more is the polarity.
Electronegativity of carbon = 2.5
Electronegativity of oxygen = 3.5
Electronegativity of fluorine = 4.0
Thus the difference in electronegativity of carbon and oxygen is=(3.5-2.5)= 1.0
Thus the difference in electronegativity of fluorine and oxygen is=(4.0-3.5)= 0.5.
Thus C-O bond is more polar than F-O bond.
Answer: -
The hydrogen at 10 °C has slower-moving molecules than the sample at 350 K.
Explanation: -
Temperature of the hydrogen gas first sample = 10 °C.
Temperature in kelvin scale of the first sample = 10 + 273 = 283 K
For the second sample, the temperature is 350 K.
Thus we see the second sample of the hydrogen gas more temperature than the first sample.
We know from the kinetic theory of gases that
The kinetic energy of gas molecules increases with the increase in temperature of the gas. The speed of the movement of gas molecules also increase with the increase in kinetic energy.
So higher the temperature of a gas, more is the kinetic energy and more is the movement speed of the gas molecules.
Thus the hydrogen at 10 °C has slower-moving molecules than the sample at 350 K.
