(choose chapter or problem)

(a) The nitric oxide molecule, NO, readily loses one electron to form the NO+ ion. Why is this consistent with the electronic structure of NO? (b) Predict the order of the N-0 bond strengths in NO, NO+, and NO-, and describe the magnetic properties of each. (c) With what neutral homonuclear diatomic molecules are the NO+ and NO- ions isoelectronic (same number of electrons)?
