Which of the following statement is not correct from the view point of molecular orbital theory?

A

`Be_(2)` is not a stable molecule .

B

`He_(2)` is not stable of `N_(2)` is maximum amongst the homonuclear diatomic molecules belonging to the second period .

C

Bond strength of `N_(2)` is maximum amongst the homonuclear diatomic molecules belonging to the second period.

D

The order of energies of molecular orbitals in `N_(2)` molecule is ` sigma 2s lt sigma^(***) 2s lt sigma2p_(z) lt (pi 2p_(x) = pi 2p_(y)) lt (pi^(***) 2p_(x) = pi^(***) 2p_(y)) lt sigma^(***) 2p_(z)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

The correct order of energies of molecular orbitals in `N_(2)` molecules is
`sigma 2s lt sigma^(**) 2s lt (pi 2p_(x) = pi 2p_(y)) lt sigma2 p_(z) lt (pi^(**) 2p_(x) = pi^(**)2p_(y)) lt sigma^(**) 2p_(z)`
