What is the bond order of N2+?

Correct Answer: 2.5

Explanation:

Bond Order  = 1/2[ Nb - Na]


where


Nb = Number of electrons in bonding molecular orbitals.


Na = Number of Electrons in antibonding molecular orbitals


 


Bond Order of N2⁺:


Total number of electrons: 13


Electronic Configuration= :σ1s² σ*1s² σ2s² σ*2s² π 2py² [π2pz² σ2px1 ]


Bond Order = [9-4]/2 = 5/2 = 2.5.
