Q.
Match the bond order for the following molecules.
| List -I |
List-II |
| A |
Li2 |
i |
3 |
| B |
N2 |
ii |
1.5 |
| C |
Be2 |
iii |
1.0 |
| D |
O2 |
iv |
0 |
|
|
v |
2 |
The correct answer is
Solution:
Bond order the number of chemical bonds between a pair of atom. So, (B.O)
Li2=Li−Li(1)
N2=N≡N(3)
Be2=Be ( No bond) (0)
O2=O=O(2)
Note Zero bond order means the molecule is too unstable and so it will not exist.
Electrons will fill according to the energy levels of the orbitals.
