Resources « previous | 6 of 16 Molecules and lons Suppose that you have 16 diatomic molecules or ions with t ilence molecular orbital arrangement shown here (Figure 1), but with different numbe.-of valence electrons. Species 1 has one valence electron, species 2 has two valence electrons, etc. Classify each as diamagnet or paramagnetic Part A Drag the appropriate items to their respective bins. Hints Reset Help species 1 species 2 species 3 species 4 species 5 | | species 6 species 7 species 8 species 9 species 10 species 11 species 12 species 13 | | species 1 species 15 | | species 16 Diamagnetic Paramagnetic Submit My Answers Give Up Relative energies of sigma and pi molecular orbitals The offective nuclear charge of an atom or ion affects the rolati orbitals. Molecules for which Ze is lnwn

Explanation / Answer

We know that species with odd no of valence electrons are paramagnetic in nature while even no electron species are diamagnetic.

So species with 1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15 electrons are paramagnetic  

While species with 2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16 are diamagnetic.
