The correct increasing order of the acid strength of benzoic acid (I), 4-nitrobenzoic acid (II), 3,4-dinitrobenzoic acid (III) and 4-methoxybenzoic acid (IV) is
I < II < III < IV
II < I < IV < III
IV < I < II < III
IV < II < I < III
Choose the correct order of decreasing basic strength of the following compounds in aqueous solution
(i) C6H5NH2
(ii) C2H5NH2
(iii) NH3
(iv) (CH3)2NH
(i) > (ii) > (iii) > (iv)
(iv) > (ii) > (iii) > (i)
(ii) > (i) > (iii) > (iv)
(iv) > (iii) > (ii) > (i)
The shortest wavelength of the line in hydrogen atomic spectrum of Lyman series when RH = 109678 cm-1 is

Arrange the following species in the correct order of their stability
C2, Li2, O, He
Li2 < He < O < C2
C2 < O < Li2 < He
He < Li2 < C2 < O
O < C2 < Li2 < He
C.
He < Li2 < C2 < O
Higher the bond order, more is the stability. The bond order of the given species can be calculated as-
MO configuration of C2 = (6 + 6 = 12)
= σ1s2, σ*1s2, σ2s2, σ*2s2,
BO =
MO configuration of Li2 = (3 + 3 = 6)
= σ1s2, σ*1s2, σ2s2
BO = = 1
MO configuration of O2 = (8 + 8 -1 = 15)
= σ1s2, σ*1s2, σ2s2, σ*2s2, σ2p,
BO =
Thus, the order of bond orders of the given species is
He < Li2 < C2 < O
Since, bond order α stability.
Thus, order of stability will also be the same.
