Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the bond order of the molecule N2?
  • Step 1: Identify the number of bonding electrons in the molecule N2. For N2, there are 10 bonding electrons.
  • Step 2: Identify the number of antibonding electrons in the molecule N2. For N2, there are 2 antibonding electrons.
  • Step 3: Use the bond order formula: Bond Order = (Number of Bonding Electrons - Number of Antibonding Electrons) / 2.
  • Step 4: Plug in the numbers: Bond Order = (10 - 2) / 2.
  • Step 5: Calculate the result: Bond Order = 8 / 2 = 4.
  • Step 6: Final calculation: Bond Order = 4 / 2 = 2.
