MCQ
Which of the following is not paramagnetic
  • A
    ${O_2}$
  • B
    $O_2^{1 + }$
  • $O_2^{2 - }$
  • D
    $O_2^ - $

Answer

Correct option: C.
$O_2^{2 - }$
(c) Species with unpaired electrons is paramagnetic ${O_2}$ has $2$ unpaired electrons,

$O_2^ - $ has one unpaired, $O_2^{2 - }$ has zero unpaired electrons, $O_2^{1+ }$ has one unpaired.
