Chapter 5, Problem 5.56SP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The bond order of C2 has to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Bond order:

  • Bond order is nothing but the number of chemical bonds that involved in between a pair of atoms.
  • Bond order indicates the stability of a bond and it reflects the stability of the molecule.
  • An element having bond order zero value is not exit in the universe, but compounds may have a bond order of zero.
  • According to molecular orbital theory bond order can be calculated by using the following formula.

B.O =number of bonding electrons - number of antibonding electrons2

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The requirement of electrons to increase the bond order of C2 molecule has to be given.
