Which of the following statements are correct about bond order?
| 1. | Bond order can have a negative value |
| 2. | It always has an integral value |
| 3. | It is always a non zero quantity |
| 4. | It can assume any value-positive or fractional, including zero |
The correct statement is:
1. When O2 is converted into then bond distance increases
2. When N2 is converted into then bond distance increases
3. When CO is converted into CO+ then bond distance increases
4. All of the above
A pair in which both species are not likely to exist is:
| 1. | \(H^+_2,He^{2-}_2\) | 2. | \(H^-_2,He^{2+}_2\) |

Arrange the given oxides in decreasing order of their basic character:
1. Na2O > MgO > Al2O3 > CuO
2. MgO > Al2O3 > CuO > Na2O
3. Al2O3 > MgO > CuO > Na2O
4. CuO > Na2O > MgO > Al2O3
Amongst the one with the highest boiling point is:
1. H2O because of H-bonding.
2. H2Te because of higher molecular weight.
3. H2S because of H-bonding.
4. H2Se because of lower molecular weight.
A molecule among the following with non-zero dipole moment is:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Which molecule is least likely to form hydrogen bonds?
| 1. | \(\mathrm{NH}_3\) | 2. | \(\mathrm{NH_2OH}\) |
| 3. | \(\mathrm{HF}\) | 4. | \(\mathrm{CH_3F}\) |
1.
2. H₂O has a larger bond angle than H₂S, leading to tighter packing
3. Due to intermolecular hydrogen bonding in liquid H₂O
4. H₂O has a higher latent heat of vaporisation than H₂S
