Identify the correct statements from the following.
(I) \(\mathrm{SnCl}_2\) is ionic, but \(\mathrm{SnCl}_4\) is covalent in nature.
(II) All linear diatomic molecules have zero dipole moment.
(III) Both \(\mathrm{NO}\) and \(\mathrm{O}_2\) are paramagnetic.
- A (I) and (II) only
- B (I) and (III) only
- C (II) and (III) only
- D (I), (II) and (III)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) (I) and (III) only
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Among the given statements only I and III are correct and II is incorrect. All linear diatomic molecules does not have zero dipole moment. e.g. \(\mathrm{HF}, \mathrm{HCl}, \mathrm{HBr}\) etc. Hence, statement II is incorrect. According to Fajan's rule the central metal with…
