The nitric oxide molecule no readily loses one electron to


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--O 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?
