In molecule 
, consider the following statements
(I) Bond order is 2 .
(II) Both the bonds present in 
are 
-bond.
(III) The molecule is paramagnetic in nature.
(IV) Double bond in 
consists of 
and 
-bond.
(V) Bond length of 
is greater than that of 
molecule
Select the incorrect statements.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsA
Except III, IV all options are correct.
The correct statement for III is,
Molecular electronic configuration is
So, it is clear from above configuration that 
. molecule has paired electrons both in 
orbital and therefore it is diamagnetic in nature. The correct statement for IV is given in statement II.
