Which of the following pair have identical bond order?
CN- and NO+
CN- and O
CN- and CN+
NO+ and O
A.
CN- and NO+
For pairs having identical bond order, have identical number of electrons-
Number of electrons for CN- = 6 + 7 + 1 = 14
Number of electrons for NO+ = 7 + 8 - 1 = 14
Number of electrons for O = 8 + 8 + 1 = 17
Hence, CN- and NO+ have same bond order.
The common features among CO, CN- and NO are
Bond order three and isoelectronic.
Bond order three and weak field ligands.
Bond order two and -acceptors.
Bond order three and -donors.
Dipole-dipole interaction energy between polar molecules in solids depends on the radius of the molecule (r) and it is directly proportional to

(1/r6)
(1/r)
(1/r5)
Which of the following changes in the respective bond order values are caused by removal of an electron from N2 and F2 molecules?
Decrease by 0.5 in both
Increase by 0.5 in both
Increase by 0.5 in the former and decrease by 0.5 in the latter
Decrease by 0.5 in the former and increase by 0.5 in the latter
The correct ascending order of ligand field strength of the given ligands is
F- < I- < CN- < H2O < CO
I- < F- < H2O < CO < CN-
I- < F- < H2O < CN- < CO
F- < H2O < I- < CN- < CO
