Find the odd-electron molecules from the following. \[\begin{array}{ccccc}\mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SCl}_2 \mathrm{NO} \mathrm{N}_2 \mathrm{NO}_2 \text {(i)}{(ii)} {(iii)} {(iv)} {(v)}\end{array}\]

  1. A i, iii, iv
  2. B ii, iii
  3. C i, iv
  4. D iii, v

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) iii, v

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{NO}\) and \(\mathrm{NO}_2\) species are having odd electron and disobey the octet rule. \(\ddot{N}=\ddot{O}\) is a stable free radical. Seven electrons around nitrogen. Formal charges and the molecule's resonance structures are indicate.
