Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12
Identify the incorrect statement from the following:
A
Nitrogen can form pπ-pπ multiple bonds with itself.
B
P(C₂H₅)₃ and As(C₆H₅)₃ form dπ-dπ bond with transition metals.
C
Phosphorus, arsenic and antimony show catenation property.
D
Nitrogen can form dπ-pπ bond with oxygen.
Correct Answer
Option D
Detailed Explanation
Both nitrogen and oxygen do not contain d-orbitals so they cannot form dπ-pπ bonds. Phosphorus and arsenic can form dπ-dπ bonds with transition metals due to vacant d-orbitals.
