You will need to use the unfilled (unpopulated) molecular-orbital (MO) diagram for a homonuclear diatomic molecule or ion, such as O₂, F₂, O₂⁺, F₂⁺, O₂⁻, F₂⁻.IMPORTANT: This diagram includes only valence orbitals.### Diagram Explanation:- The diagram consists of molecular orbitals, represented by lines and labels, indicating their energy levels.- The left and right sides of the diagram show the atomic orbitals (2s and 2p) of two atoms.- In the center, the molecular orbitals are depicted: - \(\sigma_{2s}\) - \(\sigma^*_{2s}\) - \(\sigma_{2p}\) - \(\pi_{2p}\), \(\pi_{2p}\) - \(\pi^*_{2p}\), \(\pi^*_{2p}\) - \(\sigma^*_{2p}\)Using scratch paper, complete this diagram specifically for the \(O_2^-\) molecular anion, indicating the electron populations for all valence molecular orbitals. Using the completed diagram, answer the question: What is the bond order in \(O_2^-\)?- Options for bond order: - 0 - 0.5 - 1 - 1.5 - 2

Which statement is true about antibonding molecular orbitals? All of these are true. Antibonding orbitals form by subtracting (canceling) one another where they overlap. Placing electrons in an antibonding orbital reduces the bond order. It requires less energy to remove an electron from an antibonding orbital compared with removing an electron from the atomic orbital from which the anitbonding orbital forms. Only A and B ate true.

Draw a labelled diagram showing the atomic orbitals for C and O on each side and the molecular orbitals for CO in the middle. The diagram should clearly show: /) which atomic orbitals combine to form each molecular orbital, ii) the relative position (increasing energy going up the page) of the molecular orbitals and the locations of electrons in the atomic orbitals and the molecular orbitals. Use your diagram to determine the following: • What is the bond order? Explain how you obtained this number from your MO diagram. The calculation must be presented. • Is the molecule diamagnetic or paramagnetic? Explain how you deduced this from your MO diagram. • From the following three possibilities, CO+, CO, CO-, determine which has the strongest bond? Explain with reference to your MO diagram.
