Use molecular orbital theory to predict the following properties of the F2 - ion:

Use molecular orbital theory to predict the following properties of the F2 - ion:

(a) electron configuration;

(b) bond order;

(c) magnetic character (paramagnetic or diamagnetic);

(d) whether the bond length is longer or shorter than in the F2 molecule;

(e) whether the bond strength is greater or less than in the F2 molecule.

Use the M.O. diagram for F2 in Figure 10.13 of Tro, Fridgen and Shaw as a starting point for this question.
