The following is part of a molecular orbital energy-level diagram for MOs constructed from 1 s atomic orbitals. (a) What labels do we use for the two MOs shown? (b) For which of the following molecules or ions could this be the energy-level diagram: $$ \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{He}_{2}, \mathrm{H}_{2}^{+}, \mathrm{He}_{2}^{+}, \mathrm{or} \mathrm{H}_{2}^{-} ? $$ (c) What is the bond order of the molecule or ion? (d) If an electron is added to the system, into which of the MOs will it be added? [Section 9.7\(]\)
(a) Write a single Lewis structure for \(\mathrm{N}_{2} \mathrm{O},\) and determine the hybridization of the central \(\mathrm{N}\) atom. (b) Are there other possible Lewis structures for the molecule? (c) Would you expect \(\mathrm{N}_{2} \mathrm{O}\) to exhibit delocalized \(\pi\) bonding?
