I. What is the hybridization of the central atom?
II. For all covalent bonds, specify the type of bond (o vs. T)
and the atomic orbitals that overlap to form the bond.
For example, in a molecule of H2, the only bond is o:
H(s)-H(s).
Use the molecular orbital model to fully describe the bonding in O₂+, O₂, O₂™, and 0₂²-
Determine which of the following statements are true and which are false.
The electron configuration of O₂ is (025)²(0₂s*)²(02p)²(¹2)4(¹²p*)².
2-
The bond order in O₂¯ and O₂²- is, respectively, 2.5 and 1.
The number of unpaired electrons in O₂ and O₂ is, respectively, 1 and 0.
The electron configuration of O₂¯ is (02)²(02s*)²(0₂p)²(12p)4(¹²µ*)³.
The bond energies increase in the order: 0₂²- < 0₂¯ < 0₂ < 0₂¹.
Bond length increases with increasing bond order while bond energy decreases.
