Question 9

How do you express the bond strength in terms of bond order?

Answer

In a molecule, as we increase the number of electrons shared between two atoms, there will be an increase in bond order, also there will be an increase in the strength of the bond and decrease the distance between nuclei.

Bond Number of electrons Bond Order Bond Strength Bond Length
Single                   2        1    Weakest    Longest
Double                   4        2          -        -
Triple                   6        3    Strongest    Shortest
