    Which one of the following species does not exist under normal conditions?                             [AIPMT (S) 2010]

    A)  x\[Be_{2}^{+}\]                    

    B)      \[Be_{2}^{{}}\]

    C)  \[{{B}_{2}}\]              

    D)       \[Li_{2}^{{}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Key Idea Molecules with zero bond order, do not exist.
    [a] \[Be_{2}^{+}(4+4-1=7)=\sigma 1{{s}^{2}},\overset{*}{\mathop{\sigma }}\,1{{s}^{2}},\overset{*}{\mathop{\sigma }}\,2{{s}^{1}}\]
    \[BO=\frac{4-3}{2}=0.5\]
    [b] \[B{{e}_{2}}(4+4=8)=\overset{{}}{\mathop{\sigma }}\,1{{s}^{2}},\overset{*}{\mathop{\sigma }}\,1{{s}^{2}},\overset{{}}{\mathop{\sigma }}\,2{{s}^{2}},\overset{*}{\mathop{\sigma }}\,2{{s}^{2}}\]
    \[BO=\frac{4-4}{2}=0\]
    [c] \[{{B}_{2}}(5+5=10)\]
    \[=\overset{{}}{\mathop{\sigma }}\,1{{s}^{2}},\overset{*}{\mathop{\sigma }}\,1{{s}^{2}},\overset{{}}{\mathop{\sigma }}\,2{{s}^{2}},\overset{*}{\mathop{\sigma }}\,2{{s}^{2}},\pi 2p_{x}^{1}\approx \pi 2p_{y}^{1}\]
    \[BO=\frac{6-4}{2}=1\]
    [d] \[L{{i}_{2}}(3+3=6)\] \[=\overset{{}}{\mathop{\sigma }}\,1{{s}^{2}},\overset{*}{\mathop{\sigma }}\,1{{s}^{2}},\sigma 2{{s}^{2}}\]
    \[BO=\frac{4-2}{2}=1\]
    Thus, Be; does not exist under normal conditions.
