Your answer choice is independent of the orientation of your drawn structure.arrow_forwardDraw a labelled diagram showing the atomic orbitals for C and O on each side and the molecular orbitals for CO in the middle. The diagram should clearly show: /) which atomic orbitals combine to form each molecular orbital, ii) the relative position (increasing energy going up the page) of the molecular orbitals and the locations of electrons in the atomic orbitals and the molecular orbitals. Use your diagram to determine the following: • What is the bond order? Explain how you obtained this number from your MO diagram. The calculation must be presented. • Is the molecule diamagnetic or paramagnetic? Explain how you deduced this from your MO diagram. • From the following three possibilities, CO+, CO, CO-, determine which has the strongest bond? Explain with reference to your MO diagram.arrow_forward
