The magnetic properties of `NO_(2) and N_(2)O_(4)` are different. Why?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To understand why the magnetic properties of \( NO_2 \) and \( N_2O_4 \) are different, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Analyze the structure of \( NO_2 \) - The molecular structure of nitrogen dioxide (\( NO_2 \)) consists of one nitrogen atom bonded to two oxygen atoms. - The Lewis structure shows that \( NO_2 \) has one unpaired electron in its highest occupied molecular orbital. ### Step 2: Determine the magnetic properties of \( NO_2 \) - Since \( NO_2 \) has an unpaired electron, it is classified as an odd-electron species. ...
