Which statement is FALSE in the elementary MO/resonance model?

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

N₂ loses a bonding electron, lowering its bond order from 3 to 2.5. Nitrite has two equivalent resonance N–O bonds. Peroxide has paired electrons. Removing an electron from superoxide gives O₂, which remains paramagnetic and has two unpaired electrons.
