Which of the following has longest CO bond length? (Free CO bond length in CO is 1.128 .)
- A[Fe(CO)4]2
- B[Mn(CO)6]+
- CNi(CO)4
- D[Co(CO)4]
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: A
[Fe(CO)4]2 has the lowest C—O bond order means the longest bond length.
Since metal atom is carrying maximum –ve charge therefore it would show maximum synergic bonding as a resultant C—O bond length would be maximum.
