According to "molecular orbital theory", which among the following diatomic molecules only has -bonds?
Options
- AN ₂
- BH ₂
- CC ₂
- DBe ₂
Correct answer
C. C ₂
Step-by-step solution
Molecular orbital configuration of C ₂ is l s^2 * 1 s^2 2 s^2 * 2 s^2 2 p_x^2= 2 p_y^2 So, C ₂ molecule contains only -bonds.
