Hi all,
I have a few questions here.
1)Are there any non-bonding MOs in N2
I saw from one of the Nitrogen MO diagrams posted that there is none. How do you tell if its bonding or not?
2)Electrons which are lone pairs occupy non-bonding MOs, do you see any evidence of lone pairs in N2?
3)VSEPR predicts two lone pairs in N2. If you were forced to identify two lone pairs in N2 based on its MO diagram, which two pair of electrons, when considered together, would you select? Explain your choice.
Thanks alot!
