Question: Which of the following diatomic molecules would be stabilised by the removal of an electron-

Options:

A) $ O_2 $

B) $ C{N^{\odot }} $

C) $ N_2 $

D) $ C_2 $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

  • From $ O_2 $ the election is removed form anti-bonding orbital. $ K{K^{*}}\sigma 2s^{2},{{\sigma }^{*}}2s^{2},\sigma 2p_z^{2},(\pi 2p_y^{2}=\pi 2p_x^{2}){{\pi }^{*}}2p_y^{1}{{\pi }^{*}}2p_x^{1} $
