Which of the following pairs have identical values of bond order ?
$N_2^+$ and $O_2^+$
$F_2$ and $Ne_2$
$O_2$ and $B_2$
$C_2$ and $N_2$
Which one of the following molecules is paramagnetic?
Which of the following species is paramagnetic?
After understanding the assertion and reason, choose the correct option.
Assertion : In the bonding molecular orbital $(MO)$ of $H_2,$ electron density is increased between the nuclei.
Reason : The bonding $MO$ is ${\psi _A}\, + \,\,{\psi _{B,}}$ which shows destructive interference of the combining electron waves.
Using $MO$ theory, predict which of the following species has the shortest bond length ?
Using molecular orbital theory, compare the bond energy and magnetic character of ${\rm{O}}_2^ + $ and ${\rm{O}}_2^{2 - }$ species.
