JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 11 - 4. Chemical bonding and molecular structure
After understanding the assertion and reason, choose the correct option.
Assertion : In the bonding molecular orbital \((MO)\) of \(H_2,\) electron density is increased between the nuclei.
Reason : The bonding \(MO\) is \({\psi _A}\, + \,\,{\psi _{B,}}\) which shows destructive interference of the combining electron waves.
- A Assertion is incorrect, reason is correct.
- B Assertion is correct, reason is incorrect
- C Assertion and reason are correct and reason is the correct explanation for the assertion
- D Assertion and reason are correct, but reason is not the correct explanation for the assertion
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Assertion is correct, reason is incorrect
Step-by-step Solution
