What is chemical bonding ? How it is formed and give its types.
The attractive force which holds various consti-tuents (atoms, ions, etc.) together in different chemical species is called a chemical bond.
Every system tends to be more stable and bonding is nature's way of lowering the energy of the system to attain stability.
The types of chemical bonding are as under.
$(1)$ Kossel - Lewis approach
$(2)$ The valence shell electron pair repulsion ($VSEPR$) theory
$(3)$ Valence bond theory ($VB$)
$(4)$ Molecular orbital theory ($MO$)
In $O_2^ - ,$ ${O_2}$ and $O_2^{ - 2}$ molecular species, the total number of antibonding electrons respectively are
Correct decreasing order of bond order of oxygen species in $I$ to $IV$
$(I)$ $Na_2O_2$
$(II)$ $O_2 [AsF_6]$
$(III)$ $CsO_2$
$(IV)$ $O_2$
Which of the following is paramagnetic ?
If the magnetic moment of a dioxygen species is $1.73 \;B.M$, it may be
Among the following molecules / ions $C_2^{2-} ,N_2^{2-} ,O_2^{2-},O_2$ which one is diamagnetic and has the shortest bond length ?
