Interpretation:
The molecular orbital (MO) energy diagram is to be drawn. The bond order in a molecule or ion with each number of total valence electrons is to be calculated. The magnetic nature of the molecules in terms of diamagnetic or paramagnetic is to be predicted.
Concept introduction: The molecular energy diagram is the representation of the energy levels in a molecule. Such representation plays a very important role in the
Bond order of any molecule is calculated with the help of MO diagram.
If all the electrons are paired in MO diagram then the molecule is diamagnetic in nature.
If any of the electrons is unpaired in MO diagram then the molecule is paramagnetic in nature.
