Chemical Bonding And Molecular Structure Question 352
Question: In which of the following pairs molecules have bond order three and are isoelectronics
Options:
A) $ C{N^{-}} $ , CO
B) $ N{O^{+}},C{O^{+}} $
C) $ C{N^{-}} $ , $ O_2^{+} $
D) CO, $ O_2^{+} $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
$ C{N^{-}}=14 $ electrons ; CO =14 electrons B.O. = $ \frac{1}{2}[10-4]=\frac{6}{2}=3 $ .
