Give the reason for the following: Bond order in N2 is 3 whereas it is 2.5 in NO ?
Total number of electrons in N2 = 7 + 7 = 14
The electronic configuration is:
Total number of electrons in NO = 7 + 8 = 15. The 15th electron enters into
Now Nb = 8 and Na = 3
Give the points of resemblance and points of difference between valence bond theory and molecular orbtial theory.
Nitrogen and chlorine have the same electronegativity but only former shows intermolecular hydrogen bonding. Discuss.
