Synergic bonding in metal carbonyl complexes metal ______
(i) decreases bond strength
(ii) increases bond length
(iii) increases bond order for bond
(i) decreases bond strength
(ii) increases bond length
(iii) increases bond order for bond
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
(i) and (iii)
The correct answer is B ((i) and (iii)). Synergic bonding in metal carbonyls involves back-donation from the metal to the CO ligand, which decreases the C-O bond strength and increases the M-C bond order.
