Use the supplied approximate bond lengths, in pm: N–N in N₂H₄=145, N–N in N₂F₄=136; O–O in H₂O₂=148, O–O in O₂F₂=122; Si–F in SiF₄=156, Si–F in SiH₃F=160. Which inference is FALSE?

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

The comparisons follow directly from the data: 145>136, 148>122, but 156<160. The last comparison reverses C. Bond lengths are influenced by the complete bonding environment, not only the names of the two bonded atoms.
