MCQ
The maximum probability of finding an electron in the ${d_{xy}}$ orbital is
  • A
    Along the $x-$ axis
  • B
    Along the $y-$ axis
  • At an angle of ${45^o}$ from the $x$ and $y-$ axes
  • D
    At an angle of ${90^o}$ from the $x$ and $y-$ axes

Answer

Correct option: C.
At an angle of ${45^o}$ from the $x$ and $y-$ axes
c
The lobes of $d _{ xy }$ orbital are oriented inbetween the axes at an angle $45$ degree.

So, the finding electron in a $d _{ xy }$ orbital is maximum at an angle of $45$ degree from $x$ and $y$ axis.

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $(A)$ and the other is labelled as Reason $(R)$.

Assertion $(A)$ : $\mathrm{NH}_3$ and $\mathrm{NF}_3$ molecule have pyramidal shape with a lone pair of electrons on nitrogen atom. The resultant dipole moment of $\mathrm{NH}_3$ is greater than that of $\mathrm{NF}_3$.

Reason $(R)$ : In $\mathrm{NH}_3$, the orbital dipole due to lone pair is in the same direction as the resultant dipole moment of the $\mathrm{N}-\mathrm{H}$ bonds. $\mathrm{F}$ is the most electronegative element.
