Which one of the following molecules is expected to exhibit diamagnetic behaviour?
(i) `N_2` (ii) `O_2`
(iii) `S_2` (iv) `C_2`

A

`S_(2)`

B

`C_(2)`

C

`N_(2)`

D

`O_(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B, C
In`C_(2) and N_(2)` , all molecular orbitals are fully filled,
i.e., there is no unpaired electron present . Hence
both of them are diamagnetc.
