Note : If in a molecule side atom are same and l.p is absent (regular geometry) then dipole moment of
that molecule is always zero.

By MOT, Bond order = 3
CN—
No. of electron  6+7+1 = 14
By MOT, Bond order = 3
18. When electron in MO (molecular orbital) are paired = Diamagnetic

When electron in MO (molecular orbital) are unpaired = Paramagnetic
By MOT; on doing e– filling in molecular orbital; we get -
O2– → Paramagnetic
CN– → Diamagnetic
CO → Diamagnetic
NO+ → Diamagnetic
19. By MOT, Bond Order

O2+ → 2.5
N2+ → 2.5
N2– → 2.5
20. By MOT
N2 = 1s2 *1s2 2s2 *2s2 2px2 2py2 2pz2
N2— = 1s2 *1s2 2s2 *2s2 2px2 2py2 2pz2 *2px1 *2py0
The electron adds to * orbital during change of N2 to N2—
21. By MOT
Bond order of Be2 = 0
Bond order = 0 zero indicates no linkage between Be atoms. Hence, Be2 molecule does not exist.

Inter molecular hydrogen bond 
Volatility

TG: @Chalnaayaaar
In p-nitro phenol hydrogen bond is present between two molecules; but in o—nitro phenol
Vander waal bond is present between two molecules & hydrogen bond strength is more stronger
than Vander waal bond. So, o—nitro phenol have higher volatility.

30. Hydrogen Bond strength  EN

In HF, EN is maximum so strength of hydrogen bond is maximum.
31. In Ice, at 0°C oxygen atom of each water Molecule is surrounded by 4 hydrogen atoms in
tetrahedral manner in which two of them is attached through single covalent bond & remaining
two H-atom is attached through intermolecular hydrogen bond. Therefore, some vacant space is
introduced in ice due to formation of open cage like structure and volume gradually increases.
Thus, density of ice is less than that of water.
32. Due to presence of Hydrogen bond in 2 molecules of NH3. It has abnormally high boiling point.
33. Condition of Ionic Bond

* Low IP of cation, high electron affinity of anion
* Large cation, small anion and less charge
* High lattice energy
