Question
Which of the following is the wrong statement?
Options
A.ONCl and ONO- are not isoelectronic
B.O3 molecule is bent
C.Ozone is violet-black in solid state
D.Ozone is diamagnetic gas
Solution
(i) Some times, two species having samevalence shell electrons are considered asisolectronic species. Accordingly ONCl and ONO- are isoelectronic to each other.
[Otherwise all four statements are correct and no answer is available in the given options].
(ii)
sp2, bent shaped
(iii)
O3(g) = Blue
O3(l) = Dark blue
O3 (s) = violet - black
(iv) All electrons are paired in structure of O3.Hence it is diamagnetic.
