Is hydrogen peroxide paramagnetic

Answer 1

Peroxide ion is

O

22-

is diamagnetic. It has the hybridisation:

No. of electrons: 18

σ1s2

σ*1s

2 σ2s2

σ*2s

2 σ2px2

Ï€2py2

Ï€2pz2

Ï€*2py2

Ï€*2pz2

As it has no unpaired electrons, it is diamagnetic.

Answer 2

Hydrogen peroxide can't be paramagnetic or diamagnetic because it is is a compound. To measure the magnetic tendencies of hydrogen peroxide, you have to look at the dipole moment to determine which side is positive and which is negative. Paramagnatism applies to elements and whether or not they have full subshells or not.

Answer 3

Yes, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is paramagnetic because it has unpaired electrons, which causes it to be attracted to a magnetic field. This property is due to the presence of a lone pair of electrons on each oxygen atom in the molecule.

Answer 4

No it is not paramagnetic.O2^2- has 2 electrons more than O2.Pi 2p molecular orbitals get completely filled hence it is diamagnetic.

Answer 5

paramagnetic

Answer 6

para magnetic

Answer 7

no

Answer 8

paramagnetic
