Which one of the following has highest bond energy?
Correct answer: C. HF
- A. HI
- B. HCL
- C. HF
- D. HBr
Explanation
HF has the highest bond energy since fluorine is the most electronegative halogen and would bind strongly with an electropositive hydrogen. Therefore the highest bond energy would be of HF.

About Chemical Bonding
Chemical bonding explains molecular shape through VSEPR theory and distinguishes sigma bonds from pi bonds. Questions involve hybridization, bond angles, dipole moment and bond energy, including how electron-pair repulsion determines geometry and how bond polarity differs from the overall polarity of a molecule.
