In the conversion of `O_(2)toO_(2)^(-)`
electron enter in which molecular orbital?

A

`pi^ **`orbital

B

`pi`orbital

C

`sigma^ **`orbital

D

`sigma` orbital

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
M.O. configuration of `O_(2)`
`sigma_(2s)^(2)sigma**_(2s)^(2)sigma_(2p_(z))^2pi_(2p_(x))^2pi_(2p_(y))^2pi**_(2p_(x))^1pi**_(2p_(y))^1` and
For `O_2^(-):K K sigma_(2s)^2 sigma **_(2s)^2 sigma_(2p_(z))^2 pi_(2p_(x))`

Filling of Electrons in Molecular Orbitals

A new electron enters the orbital when:

Molecular orbital theory as developed by Hund and Mulliken concerns with the formation of molecular orbitals formed by linear combination of atomic orbitals. The electrons are present in these molecular orbitals. The molecular orbitals are filled. The molecular orbital configuration helps us to calculate bond order which gives information about the number of bonds present between atoms. The bond order is related to bond length and bond strength. Which one of the following does not have single electron in a bonding molecular orbital?
