                    The relationship between the dissociation energy of N2 and \[N_{2}^{+}\] is:                                     

    A)                 dissociation energy of \[N_{2}^{+}\] > dissociation energy of \[N_{2}^{+}\]

    B)                 dissociation energy of \[{{N}_{2}}=\] dissociation energy of                 \[N_{2}^{+}\]

    C)                 dissociation energy of \[{{N}_{2}}>\] dissociation energy of                 \[N_{2}^{+}\]

    D)                 dissociation energy of \[{{N}_{2}}\] can either be lower or higher than the dissociation energy of                 \[N_{2}^{+}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    The dissociation energy will be more when the bond order will be greater                 or Bond order \[\propto \] Dissociation energy                 Molecular orbital configuration of \[{{N}_{2}}(14)=\]                 \[\sigma 1\,{{s}^{2}},\,\sigma *\,1{{s}^{2}},\sigma 2{{s}^{2}},\,\sigma \,2\,{{s}^{2}},\,\pi 2\,P_{y}^{2},\pi 2p_{z}^{2},\,\sigma 2p_{x}^{2}\]                 So bond order of \[{{N}_{2}}=\frac{{{N}_{b}}-{{N}_{a}}}{2}=\frac{10-4}{2}=3\]                 and bond order of \[N_{2}^{+}=\frac{9-4}{2}=2.5\]                 As the bond order of \[{{N}_{2}}\] is greater than \[N_{2}^{+}\]                 So, the dissociation energy of \[{{N}_{2}}\] will be greater than \[N_{2}^{+}\] .
