Question

Why does bond length decrease as you move from single to triple bonds?

Accepted Answer

More electron pairs are shared, pulling atoms closer together.

Answer

Triple bonds repel atoms more than single bonds.

Answer

Single bonds are inherently shorter due to weaker interactions.

Answer

Double bonds increase electron repulsion, lengthening the bond.
