Valence bond theory (Resonance theory) of metallic bond was given by pualing (1937). According to this theory, the metallic bonding is essentially covalent in origin and metallic structure exhibits resonance of electro-pair bonds between each atom and its nearest neighbors. In other words, there is a resonance of a large number of canonical forms.
Consider the following ions:
(i) Ni2+ (ii) Co2+ (iii) Cr2+ (iv) Fe3+
(Given, at. no. Cr = 24, Fe = 26, Co = 27, Ni = 28)
The correct order of magnetic moment of these ions is
(i) < (ii) < (iii) < (iv)
(iv) < (ii) < (iii) < (i)
(i) < (iii) < (ii) < (iv)
(iii) < (iv) < (ii) < (i)
The electron configuration of the oxide ion is much most similar to the electron configuration of the
sulphide ion
nitride ion
oxygen atom
nitrogen atom
