Which of the following bond has the highest bond energy value?
Correct answer: D. C-F
- A. C-I
- B. C-H
- C. C-Cl
- D. C-F
Explanation
C-F has the highest bond energy, followed by C-H, C-Cl, and C-I. This trend can be explained by the increasing electronegativity of the halogen atoms, which leads to a greater bond polarity and a stronger bond between the carbon and halogen atoms. In other words, as the halogen atom becomes more electronegative, it attracts the bonding electrons more strongly, which makes the bond stronger and more difficult to break.

About Alkyl Halides
Alkyl halides are named and related to their carbon-halogen structure, polarity and reactivity. The key reactions are nucleophilic substitution by SN1 and SN2 mechanisms and elimination by E1 and E2 mechanisms, including how substrate structure, nucleophile, base, solvent and temperature influence substitution versus elimination.
