Chemistry

Consider the hypothetical heteronuclear diatomic molecule XYwhere Y is more electronegative than X. Using only the p orbitalsfrom each atom, construct a molecular orbital diagram. For eachunique type of bond and anti-bond, sketch a picture of themolecular orbital resulting from the mixing of the atomic orbitals.Redundant molecular orbitals (i.e. those that only differ inorientation) need not be drawn. What is the bond order when thereare 6 total electrons (X+Y p electrons)? Is that moleculeparamagnetic or diamagnetic? What happens to the bond order if youadd 1 more electron (7 total electrons)? Is that moleculeparamagnetic or diamagnetic?
