Account for the following: Oxygen shows catenation behavior less than sulphur.
उत्तर
Sulphur shows catenation behavior more than that of oxygen because the oxygen atom is smaller in size as compared to sulphur, the O-O bonds in oxygen experiences repulsions due to the lone pairs present on oxygen atom and therefore, are weaker as compared to the S-S bonds.
