Choose the correct option.
detailed solution
Correct option is C
The increasing order of energies of various molecular orbitals for O2 and F2 (no. of e- >14) is given belowσ1s<σ*1s<σ2s<σ*2s<σ2pz<π2px=π2py<π*2px=π*2py<σ*2pzHowever, this sequence of energy levels of molecular orbitals is not correct for the remaining molecules Li2,Be2, B2, C2, N2. (no. of e- ≤14) For instance, it has been observed experimentally that for molecules such as B2,C2, N2 etc. the increasing order of energies of various molecular orbitals is σ1s<σ*1s<σ2s<σ*2s<(π2px=π2py<σ2pz <π*2px=π*2py<σ*2pzThe important characteristic feature of this order is that the energy of σ2pzmolecular orbital is higher than that of π2px and π2pymolecular orbitals.Talk to our academic expert!
