Chemical Bonding And Molecular Structure Question 443
Question: $ N_2 $ and $ O_2 $ are converted into monocations, $ N_2^{+} $ and $ O_2^{+} $ respectively. Which of the following statements is wrong-
Options:
A) In $ N_2^{+},N-N $ bond weakens
B) In $ O_2^{+} $ , the $ O-O $ bond order increases
C) In $ O_2^{+} $ , paramagnetism decreases
D) $ N_2^{+} $ becomes diamagnetic
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
- $ {\sigma}_b^2 {\sigma^*}_a^2$
$ {\sigma}_b^2{\sigma^*}_a^2({\pi}_b^2={\pi}_b^2),{\sigma}_b^1,(N_2^+=13,electrons) $ it contains one unpaired electron hence paramagnetic
