Identify a molecule which does not exist.

A

$O _{2}$

B

$He _{2}$

C

$Li _{2}$

D

$C _{2}$

(NEET-2020)

Solution

$He _{2}=$ Total electron $=4$

$=\sigma_{1 \sigma}^{2} \sigma_{1 \sigma}^{* 2} \Rightarrow B . O .=\frac{1}{2}[ Nb – Na ]=\frac{1}{2}[2-2]=0$

Bond order $=0,$ so $He _{2}$ does not exist.
