A pair of isoelectronic species having bond order of one is

  1. A \(\mathrm{N}_2, \mathrm{CO}\)
  2. B \(\mathrm{N}_2, \mathrm{NO}^{+}\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{O}_2^{2-}, \mathrm{F}_2\)
  4. D \(\mathrm{CO}, \mathrm{NO}^{+}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\mathrm{O}_2^{2-}, \mathrm{F}_2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Among the given isoelectronic species, \(\mathrm{O}_2^{2-}\) and \(\mathrm{F}_2\) contains \(18 e^{-}\)each and their bond order is 1.
For \(\mathrm{O}_2^{2-} \mathrm{B} \cdot \mathrm{O}=\frac{N_b-N_a}{2}=\frac{10-8}{2}=1\)
For \(\mathrm{F}_2\)
B.O \(=\frac{N_b-N_a}{2}=\frac{10-8}{2}=1\)
