In which of the following sets the sum of bond orders of three species is maximum?
Options
- AB ₂, CN ⁻, O ₂ ²⁻
- BO ₂, ~F ₂, O ₂ ²⁺
- CO ₂⁻, N ₂, O ₂⁺
- DC ₂, O ₂, He ₂²⁺
Correct answer
C. O ₂⁻, N ₂, O ₂⁺
Step-by-step solution
array |c|c|c| Molecule & Total electron & Bond order B ₂ & 10 & 1 CN ⁻ & 14 & 3 O ₂ ²⁻ & 18 & 1 O ₂ & 16 & 2 ~F ₂ & 18 & 1 O ₂ ²⁺ & 14 & 3 O ₂ ⁻ & 17 & 1.5 N ₂ & 14 & 3 O ₂ ⁺ & 15 & 2.5 C ₂ & 12 & 2 O ₂ & 16 & 2 He ₂ ²⁺ & 2 & 1 array So, O ₂⁻, N ₂ and O ₂⁺ the sum of order is 8 it have maximum bond order.
