Which of the following order of energies of molecular orbitals of `N_(2)` is correct?

Options

A. `(pi2p_(y)) lt (sigma2p_(z))lt (pi^(**)2p_(x))~~(pi^(**)2p_(y))`
B. `(pi2p_(y)) gt (sigma2p_(z))gt (pi^(**)2p_(x))~~(pi^(**)2p_(y))`
C. `(pi2p_(y)) gt (sigma2p_(z))lt (pi^(**)2p_(x))~~(pi^(**)2p_(y))`
D. `(pi2p_(y)) gt (sigma2p_(z))lt (pi^(**)2p_(x))~~(pi^(**)2p_(y))`

Answer

A

Explanation

The order of energies of Mos for `N_(2)` molecule is :
`pi2p_(y) lt sigma2p_(z) ltpi^(**)2p_(x)=pi^(**)2p_(y)`
