Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
B

(i)b (ii)c (iii)d

Sol. B 2 → (10 e) < < < < < σ *2p z .

N b = 6 e, N a = 4 , B.O. = = = 1

And S.P. mixing occurs, Paramagnetic in nature, HOMO is BMO.

→ (15 e) < < < < < < ( = π *2p y ) < σ *2p z

N b = 10 e, N a = 5 , B.O. = = = 2.5

And no S.P. mixing occur, Paramagnetic in nature, HOMO is ABMO.

F 2 → (18 e) < < < < < < ( = ) < σ *2p z

N b = 10 e, N a = 8 , B.O. = = = 1

And no S.P. mixing occur, Diamagnetic in nature, HOMO is ABMO

C 2 → (12 e) < < < < < σ *2p z .

N b = 8 e, N a = 4 , B.O. = = = 2

And S.P. mixing occur, Diamagnetic in nature, HOMO is BMO.
