Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure - Result Question 105

####107. During change of O2 to O2ion, the electron adds on which one of the following orbitals?

[2012 M]

(a) π orbital

(b) π orbital

(c) σ orbital

(d) σ orbital

Show Answer

Solution:

  1. (a) O2=KK(σ2s)2(σ2s)2(σ2pz)2

$(\pi 2 p_x)^{2}(\pi 2 p_y)^{2}(\pi^{} 2 p_x)^{1}(\pi^{} 2 p_y)^{1}$

O2=KK(σ2s)2(σ2s)2(σ2pz)2

$(\pi 2 p_x)^{2}(\pi 2 p_y)^{2}(\pi^{} 2 p_x)^{2}(\pi^{} 2 p_y)^{1}$
