Question
Write the molecular orbital configuration of $\text{N}_2$.Calculate its bond order and predict its magnetic behaviour.

Answer

$\text{N}_2(14)=\sigma\text{ls}^2\ \sigma*\text{ls}^2\ \sigma2\text{s}^2\ \sigma2\text{s}^2\ \pi2\text{p}_\text{x}^2\ \pi2\text{p}_4^3\ \pi2\text{p}^2_\text{z}$
$\text{B.O.}=\frac12(10-4)=\frac62=3$
It is diamagnetic in nature.
