$\mathrm{B}_2$ : Total electrons $=10$ Configuration : $\sigma 1 s^2 \sigma^* 1 s^2 \sigma 2 s^2 \sigma^* 2 s^2 \pi 2 p_x^1=\pi 2 p_y^1$ If Hunds rule is violated, then $ \sigma 1 s^2 \sigma^* 1 s^2 \sigma 2 s^2 \sigma^* 2 s^2 \quad \pi 2 p_x^2=\pi 2 p_y^0 $ So, diamagnetic $ 	ext { Bond order }=\frac{6-4}{2}=1 $ Chemical bonding Conceptual II
