Arrange the following in order of increasing bond strength of the carbon oxygen bond:

a. Carbon monoxide < carbon dioxide < carbonate ion
b. Carbonate ion < carbon monoxide < carbon dioxide
c. Carbon dioxide < carbon monoxide < carbonate ion
d. Carbonate ion < carbon dioxide < carbon monoxide
e. Carbon dioxide < carbonate ion < carbon monoxide

Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is known that length of a bond is inversely proportional to the bond strength. This also means that a single bond has long length due to which it is weak in nature.

And, a double bond is shorter in length and has more strength as compared to a single bond. Whereas a triple bond has the smallest length and it has high strength as compared to a double or single bond.

For example, carbon monoxide is CO where there is a triple bond between the carbon and oxygen atom.

Carbon dioxide is where there exists a double bond between the carbon and oxygen atom.

A carbonate ion is when two oxygen atoms are attached through single bond with the carbon atom and another oxygen atom is attached through a double bond to the carbon atom.

Hence, we can conclude that order of increasing bond strength of the given carbon oxygen bond is as follows.

        Carbonate ion < carbon dioxide < carbon monoxide

answer: any goods being imported from another country may be subject to issued by the federal government are tariffs

explanation:  

tariffs are a tax on anything that are imported from abroad. government use them to protect and boost their local industries and the thought is that they encourage consumers to buy local instead of importing and they will hope will protect jobs and economy in the country that implements them
