The molecule/ion having paramagnetic nature and a bond order of 1.0 is
The molecule/ion having paramagnetic nature and a bond order of 1.0 is
- \(\mathrm{He}_2^{+}\)
- \(\mathrm{Li}_2^{+}\)
- \(\mathrm{B}_2\)
- \(\mathrm{C}_2\)
Solution
\(\mathrm{He}_2^{+}=\sigma s^2 < \sigma^* \mathrm{l} s^1\)
\(\mathrm{BO}=\frac{2-1}{2}=0.5\)
\(\mathrm{He}_2^{+}\)ion having one unpaired electron. So, it is paramagnetic.
\(\begin{aligned}
& \mathrm{Li}_2^{+}=\sigma s^2 < \sigma^{\star} 1 s^2 < \sigma 2 s^1 \\
& \mathrm{BO}=\frac{3-2}{2}=0.5 \quad \text{(Paramagnetic)}\\
& \mathrm{~B}_2=\sigma s^2 < \sigma^* 1 s^2 < \sigma 2 s^2 < \sigma^* 2 s^2 < \pi 2 p_x^1=\pi 2 p_y^1 \\
& \mathrm{BO}=\frac{6-4}{2}=1 \quad \text{(Paramagnetic)} \\
& \mathrm{C}_2 ightarrow \sigma 1 s^2 < { }^* \sigma 1 s^2 < \sigma 2 s^2 < { }^* \sigma 2 s^2 < \pi 2 p_x^2=\pi 2 p_y^2 \\
& \mathrm{BO}=\frac{8-4}{2}=2 \quad \text{(Diamagnetic)} \\
\end{aligned}\)
