Which one of the following has highest bond order ? N_(2) , N_(2)^(+) " or " N_(2)^(-)

Answer»

SOLUTION :`N_(2) ` (14 electrons)
BOND order = 3
Bond order ` = (N_(b)- N_(a))/2 = (10 - 4)/2 = 3`
`N_(2)^(+)` ( 13 electrons)
Bond order= `2.5`
Bond order ` = (N_(b) - N_(a))/2 = (9-4)/ 2 = 2.5`
`N_(2)^(-) ` ( 15 electrons)
Bond order ` = 2.5`
Bond order ` = (N_(b) - N_(a))/2 = (10 - 5)/2 = 2.5`.
So , `N_(2)` has the highest bond order .
