Question

An odd electron molecule among the following is (A) CO (B) SO2 (C) CO2 (D) NO

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

In NO, number of electrons of N =7, number of electrons of O =8 ∴ Total number of electrons of NO =15 electrons. So, NO has odd electrons (15 electrons).

Q. An odd electron molecule among the following is

$CO$

$S O_{2}$

$C O_{2}$

$NO$

$O F_{2}$

In NO, number of electrons of $N = 7$ ,

number of electrons of $O = 8$

$∴$ Total number of electrons of $NO$

$= 15$ electrons.

So, NO has odd electrons (15 electrons).
