Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's evaluate each statement: has a bent shape due to the presence of a lone pair on the central oxygen. (Correct)In solid state, ozone is indeed violet-black. (Correct)Ozone is a diamagnetic gas because all its electrons are paired in its ground state MO configuration. (Correct)Electron count:: electrons.: electrons.They are not isoelectronic. (Correct)Note: The question paper source indicates all statements are correct, making this a bonus question in the original exam.
