Question
Given below are statements about some molecules/ions.
Identify the CORRECT statements.
A. The dipole moment value of ${NF}_{3}$ is higher than that of ${NH}_{3}$.
B. The dipole moment value of ${BeH}_{2}$ is zero.
C. The bond order of $O_{2}^{2 -}$ and $F_{2}$ is same.
D. The formal charge on the central oxygen atom of ozone is -1 .
E. In ${NO}_{2}$, all the three atoms satisfy the octet rule, hence it is very stable.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Options
Solution
A) Dipole moment : ${NF}_{3} < {NH}_{3}$
B) ${BeH}_{2}$ is 'sp' hybridized, linear molecule with zero dipole moment.
C) $O_{2}^{- 2} \Rightarrow$ bond order $= 1$
$F_{2} \Rightarrow$ bond order $= 1$
D) Formal charge on central oxygen atom in $O_{3}$ is +1 .
E) In ${NO}_{2}$; nitrogen does not follow octet rule.
