Question:
$\text{N}_2 \text{ and } \text{O}_2 \text{ are converted to monocations } \text{N}_2^+ \text{ and } \text{O}_2^+ \text{ respectively. Which of the following is incorrect?}$
Options:
  • 1. $\text{In } \text{N}_2^+, \text{ the } \text{N} - \text{N} \text{ bond weakens.}$
  • 2. $\text{In } \text{O}_2^+, \text{ the } \text{O} - \text{O} \text{ bond order increases.}$
  • 3. $\text{In } \text{O}_2^+, \text{ the paramagnetism decreases.}$
  • 4. $\text{N}_2^+ \text{ becomes diamagnetic.}$
Solution:
$\text{HINT: Bond strength } \propto \text{ Bond order } \propto \frac{1}{\text{Bond length}}$ $\text{Explanation:}$ $\text{STEP 1:}$ $\text{1.) Electronic configuration of } \text{O}_2 \text{ (16 electrons)} = \sigma_{1s}^2, \sigma_{1s}^{*2}, \sigma_{2s}^2, \sigma_{2s}^{*2}, \sigma_{2p_z}^2, \pi_{2p_x}^2 \approx \pi_{2p_y}^2, \pi_{2p_x}^{*1} \approx \pi_{2p_y}^{*1}$ $\text{Bond order} = \frac{1}{2}(N_b - N_a) = \frac{1}{2}(10 - 6) = 2$ $\text{2.) Electronic configuration of } \text{O}_2^+ \text{ (15 electrons)} = \sigma_{1s}^2, \sigma_{1s}^{*2}, \sigma_{2s}^2, \sigma_{2s}^{*2}, \sigma_{2p_z}^2, \pi_{2p_x}^2 \approx \pi_{2p_y}^2, \pi_{2p_x}^{*1} \approx \pi_{2p_y}^{*0}$ $\text{Bond order} = \frac{1}{2}(N_b - N_a) = \frac{1}{2}(10 - 5) = 2.5$ $\text{3.) Electronic configuration of } \text{N}_2 \text{ (14 electrons)} = \sigma_{1s}^2, \sigma_{1s}^{*2}, \sigma_{2s}^2, \sigma_{2s}^{*2}, \pi_{2p_x}^2 \approx \pi_{2p_y}^2, \sigma_{2p_z}^2$ $\text{Bond order} = \frac{1}{2}(N_b - N_a) = \frac{1}{2}(10 - 4) = 3$ $\text{4.) Electronic configuration of } \text{N}_2^+ \text{ (13 electrons)} = \sigma_{1s}^2, \sigma_{1s}^{*2}, \sigma_{2s}^2, \sigma_{2s}^{*2}, \pi_{2p_x}^2 \approx \pi_{2p_y}^2, \sigma_{2p_z}^1$ $\text{Bond order} = \frac{1}{2}(N_b - N_a) = \frac{1}{2}(9 - 4) = 2.5$ $\text{STEP 2:}$ $\text{When } \text{N}_2 \text{ is converted to } \text{N}_2^+ \text{ then bond order decreases from 3 to 2.5 while } \text{O}_2 \text{ is converted into } \text{O}_2^+ \text{ then bond order increases from 2 to 2.5.}$ $\text{O}_2^+, \text{N}_2^+ \text{ \& } \text{O}_2 \text{ are paramagnetic while } \text{N}_2 \text{ is diamagnetic.}$
