प्रश्न
Give reactions for the following:
O – O single bond is weaker than S – S single bond.

उत्तर
Due to smaller size of ‘O’ as compared to ‘S’. Smaller size of O leads to smaller O–O bond length. As a result, the lone pair of electrons on the both O atoms repel each other leading to instability or weakening of O–O bond. S is relatively larger so an repulsion between lone pair electrons.
