Chemical Bonding And Molecular Structure Question 347
Question: In which of the following pairs the two molecules have identical bond order
Options:
A) $ N_2,O_2^{2+} $
B) $ N_2 $ , $ O_2^{-} $
C) $ N_2^{-} $ , $ O_2 $
D) $ O_2^{+} $ , $ N_2 $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
B.O. $ =\frac{1}{2}[,N_{b}-N_{a}] $
$ N_2=\frac{1}{2}[10-4]=\frac{6}{2}=3 $ ; $ O_2^{2+}=\frac{1}{2}[10-4]=\frac{6}{2}=3. $
