Question

`N_2` and `O_2` are converted to mono cations `N_2^+` and `O_2^+` respectively, which statement is wrong ?
A. In `N_2^+`, the N-N bond weakens
B. In `O_2^+`, the O-O bond order increases
C. In `O_2^+`, paramagnetism decreases
D. `N_2^+` becomes diamagnetic.

Answer 1

Correct Answer - D
In `N_2^(+)`, there is one unpaired electron. Hence it is paramagnetic.
