MO Diagram of C₂⁻ is shown below,
Bond order is calculated as,
Bond Order = [# of e⁻s in BMO]-[#of e⁻s in ABMO] / 2
Where,
BMO = Bonding Molecular Orbital
ABMO = Anti-Bonding Molecular Orbital
Putting values,
Bond Order = [9]-[4] / 2
Bond Order = 5 / 2
Bond Order = 2.5

Answer:
- The option <u><em>B) Fe₂O₃ (s) + 3C(s) → 2Fe(s) + 3CO₂(g),</em></u> because the reactants are only solid units and the products contain gas molecules.
Explanation:
A <em>positive entropy change</em> means that the entropy of the products is greater than the entropy of the reactants.
Entropy in a measure of the radomness or disorder of the system.
Let's see every reaction:
<u />
<u>A) 4NO₂ (g) + 2 H₂O (l) + O₂ (g) → 4 HNO₃ (aq)</u>
Since 5 molecules of a gas (high disorder) combines with 2 molecules of liquid to produce 4 units of aqueous HNO₃ you may expect that the product is more ordered than the reactants, which means that the change in entropy is negative (the entropy decreases).
<u />
<u>B) Fe₂O₃ (s) + 3C(s) → 2Fe(s) + 3CO₂(g)</u>
The left side (reactants) show only solid substances which is a highly ordered arrangement while the right side (products) show the formation a solid (ordered arrangement) and a gas (highly disoredered arrangement), so you can predict the increase of the system entropy, i.e. a positive entropy change.
The <u>equation C)</u> shows the combination of 12 gas molecules to produce 1 solid and 6 gas molecules, so you can expect that the entropy will decrease, i.e. a negative entropy change.
For <u>equation D)</u> the products include solid and gas reactants while the product is just one unit of solid substance, letting you to predict a negative entropy change.

<h2>Answer</h2>
My Answer would be Option B.
Explanation:
nuclear energy protects air quality by producing massive amounts of carbon-free electricity.
Thermal energy from nuclear reactors may also be used to decarbonize other energy-intensive sectors such as transportation – the largest contributor to carbon pollution.
