Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following molecules has a higher bond order than N2?
  • Step 1: Understand what bond order means. Bond order is a measure of the number of chemical bonds between a pair of atoms.
  • Step 2: Know the bond order of N2. The bond order of N2 (nitrogen gas) is 3, which means there are 3 bonds between the two nitrogen atoms.
  • Step 3: Check the bond order of O2. The bond order of O2 (oxygen gas) is 2, which means there are 2 bonds between the two oxygen atoms.
  • Step 4: Compare the bond orders. Since N2 has a bond order of 3 and O2 has a bond order of 2, O2 does not have a higher bond order than N2.
  • Step 5: Conclude that none of the molecules listed have a bond order higher than N2.
