Q. Assuming $2 s -2 p$ mixing is not operative, the paramagnetic species among the following is:

Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure

Solution:

If $2 s-2p$ mixing is not operative, the increasing order of energy of $M.O'S$ will be:

$C _{2}: \sigma ls ^{2} \sigma 1 s ^{2} \sigma 2 s ^{2} \sigma 2 s ^{2} \sigma 2 p _{z}^{2} \pi 2 p _{ x }^{1}=\pi 2 p _{y}^{1}$

$ (12) $
