pBlock ElementsII - Result Question 46

####46. The correct statement(s) about O3 is/are

(2013 Adv.)

(a) OO bond lengths are equal

(b) thermal decomposition of O3 is endothermic

(c) O3 is diamagnetic in nature

(d) O3 has a bent structure

Show Answer

Solution:

  1. Plan Due to resonance, bond lengths between two atoms are equal. Species is said to be diamagnetic if all electrons are paired.

Process is endothermic if it takes place with absorption of heat.

bent molecule all electrons paired thus, diamagnetic

2O33O2ΔH=142kJmol1 Exothermic 

Thus, (b) is incorrect. (a, c, d) are correct.
