A) \[{{N}_{2}}\]
B) \[{{O}_{2}}\]
C) \[H{{e}_{2}}\]
D) \[{{H}_{2}}\]
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Molecular orbital configuration of \[{{N}_{2}}=14{{e}^{-}}=\sigma 1{{s}^{2}},\overset{*}{\mathop{\sigma }}\,1{{s}^{2}},\sigma 2{{s}^{2}},\overset{*}{\mathop{\sigma }}\,2{{s}^{2}}\], \[\sigma 2{{p}_{x}}^{2},\pi 2{{p}_{y}}^{2},\pi 2{{p}_{z}}^{2}\] Bond order \[=\frac{{{N}_{b}}-{{N}_{a}}}{2}=\frac{10-4}{2}=3\] Similarly for \[{{O}_{2}}\] molecule, bond order = 2 For \[H{{e}_{2}}\] molecule, bond order = 0 For \[{{H}_{2}}\] molecule bond order = 1 So, \[{{N}_{2}}\]has highest bond order.
