A homonuclear diatomic gas molecule shows 2-electron magnetic moment. The one-electron and two-electron reduced species obtained from above gas molecule can act as both oxidizing and reducing agents. When the gas molecule is one-electron oxidized the bond length decreases compared to the neutral molecule. The gas molecule is

Q. A homonuclear diatomic gas molecule shows $2$ -electron magnetic moment. The one-electron and two-electron reduced species obtained from above gas molecule can act as both oxidizing and reducing agents. When the gas molecule is one-electron oxidized the bond length decreases compared to the neutral molecule. The gas molecule is
