In spite of being an odd electron molecule,"ClO_(2)" does not dimerise because

Odd electron molecule is

Which of the following is an odd electron molecule?

Describe being odd electron molecule, NO is colourless. Explain.

Dry SO_(2) does not bleach dry flowers because

Statement -1 : NO_(2) and CIO_(2) both being odd electron molecules dimerise. Statement -2 : On dimerisation, NO_(2) is coverted to stable N_(2)O_(4) molecule with even number of electrons.

why does NO_(2) dimerise?

Nitric oxide, though an odd electron molecule, is diamagenetic in liquid state.

Explain why He_2 molecule does not exist.

Which of the following property is /are changed when OF (odd electron species) undergoes dimerisation ?

According to Octet Rule, each atom gains or loses electrons to complete its outermost shell. As a result, molecules are formed. Each contributing element has 8 electrons in the outermost shell, but there are some limitations to this rule in which central atom of some molecules has more han 8 electrons. Some molecules like NO and NO_(2) don't satisfy octet rule as they have odd electrons in them. On the basis of above paragraph, answer the following : (i) Writer the Lewis structurre of N_(2) molecule. (ii) How the structure of SF_(6) cannot be explained on the basis of octet rule ?
