An element belongs to group 15 and third period of the Periodic Table. Its electronic configuration will be:
1s22s22p3
1s22s22p4
1s22s22p63s23p3
1s22s22p63s23p2
Which one of the following is paramagnetic?
N2
NO
CO
O3
B.
NO
Electronic configuration of NO =
KK (2s)2 (2s)2 (2pz)2 (2px)2 (2py)2 (2px)1
NO has one unpaired electron in antibonding orbital.
So, it is paramagnetic.
