Question
Chapter 14, Problem 3DQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The difference in give figures needs to be identified. As B2 is known to be paramagnetic, the
Concept Introduction :
The wave nature of electrons is assumed by molecular orbital theory, so through the overlapping the wave functions of dissimilar atoms interact in two ways- Constructive interreference and Destructive interference. The molecules possessing higher number of bonding electrons are more stable.
