    Which of the following is diamagnetic?

    A)  \[{{H}^{2+}}\]  

    B)  \[H{{e}^{2+}}\]

    C)  \[{{O}_{2}}\]   

    D)  \[{{N}_{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    : \[{{N}_{2}}(14):KK,\sigma 2{{s}^{2}},\sigma *2{{s}^{2}},\pi 2p_{x}^{2}=\pi 2p_{y}^{2},\sigma 2p_{z}^{2}\] It does not have any unpaired electrons. Hence, it is diamagnetic. \[H_{2}^{+}\] (1 electron), \[He_{2}^{+}\] (3 electrons) and \[{{O}_{2}}\] (16 electrons) are paramagnetic.
