In which at least one sigma-bond of np orbital is
present :-
(1)B2
(2) O2
(3) C2
(4) Li2
Answers
Answer: 2 and 3
each of these options are being explained below.
Explanation:
First up we have oxygen a diatomic molecule which has 8+8 16 no of electrons. Now this will be filled in the molecular bonding orbitals given in the order of energy levels as explained in the given diagram.
This will be spread as sigma 2s sigma 2s* π2px π2py π2pz π2px* π2py* π2pz*
The one's denoted by * are de generate orbitals with higher energy
Now the electrons will be filled with pauli principal that electrons will be filled according to low to high energy levels and hubli principal, while maintaining the spin orientation as well.
Bonding with O2 will be as follows for molecular orbitals
σ1s2 σ∗1s2 σ2s2 σ∗2s2 π2pz2 π2py2 π∗2py2 π2px1 π∗2py1
For boron B2 there's 10 electrons
σ1s2 σ∗1s2 σ2s2 σ∗2s2 π2px1 π2py1
For lithium Li2
There are 6 electrons
σ1s2 σ∗1s2 σ2s2
For carbon C2 there are 12 electrons
σ1s2 σ∗1s2 σ2s2 σ∗2s2 π2px2 π2py2
Hence we see only oxygen and carbon have at least one sigma np bond
