B
Bond lengths depend on bond multiplicity and atomic sizes.
single 
single 
double 
triple 
.
Triple bonds are shorter than double bonds, which are shorter than single bonds.
For single bonds, 
is longer due to lower electronegativity difference compared to 
.
Increasing order of bond length: 
, giving
