Assertion : $N_{2}$ and $NO^{+}$ are both diamagnetic.

Reason : NO⁺ is isoelectronic with N₂.

Options:

Answer:

Solution:

N₂: 14 electrons → all electrons paired → diamagnetic

NO⁺: 14 electrons → all electrons paired → diamagnetic

Reason: NO⁺ is isoelectronic with N₂, but the diamagnetism is due to paired electrons in MO, not just because they are isoelectronic → R does not fully explain A
