Attached is the MOT of NO molecule.

1. Bond order is calculated is \frac{\text{number of e- in bonding orbital - number of e- in antibonding molecular orbital }}{2}

In present case, number of e- in bonding orbital = 6
number of e- in anti-bonding orbital = 1
∴ Bond-order = \frac{\text{6-1 }}{2} = 2.5

2. From the attached figure, it can be seen that NO has one unpaired electron in π* orbital.

Which properties make a metal a good material to use for electrical wires? malleability and reactivity conductivity and ductilit
Schach [20]
The metal properties that make up electrical wires are conductivity and ductility. Conductivity is important for free electrons to flow, hence electricity. Ductility is as well integral for strips to be formed, but with ample strength that does not break the material.

Do you think that the human being is the center of the universe?
Andrej [43]
I think that the sun is the center of the universe, not a human being. Everything revolves around the sun, not someone. U know when to sleep, when the time is, and when to wake up based on the sun. All the planets revolve around it. This is why I think the sun is the center of the universe, not a human being.

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

X  is Be

Y  is B

Z  is  O            

Explanation:

In order to understand the solution, we need to that the an element form a bond based on

1  The number of valence electron available in its atom

2 The  number of electron it require to attains its stable state i.e its Octet  state

        The number of valence electron for each of the option  are

                 F = 7,   N = 5 , O = 6 , C = 4 , B = 3 , Be = 2

 Considering the first element

           We see that  X is donating  two valence electron in its atom and it is donating it to 2  Cl as Cl  only requires a single electron to achieve its stable state

Now looking  option we can see that  Be has two valence  electron in it atom and in order for it to attain its stable state it needs to release the electron so the correct option for this question is Be

Considering the second  element              

      We see that  Y is donating  three valence electron in its atom and it is donating it to 3  Cl as Cl  only requires a single electron to achieve its stable state    

    Now looking  option we can see that  B has three valence  electron in it atom and in order for it to attain its stable state it needs to release the valence electron so the correct option for this question is B

Considering the second  element  

      We see that  Z is donating two valence electron in its atom and it is donating it to 2  Cl as Cl  only requires a single electron to achieve its stable state, also Z has 2 lone-pair valence electron

       Now looking at the option we can see that  O has 6 valence electron so if it donates 2 valence electron it will still be left with 4 - pair of electron

   Therefore the correct option to this question is  O

The most abundant gases in the atmosphere are _____. trace gases variable gases greenhouse gases primary gases
White raven [17]
The correct answer is greenhouse gases. It is the most abundant gases among the choices in the atmosphere. These gases are water vapor, methane, nitrous oxide, ozone and carbon dioxide. Without these gases, the temperature of Earth will be about -18 degrees Celsius.
