Concept introduction:

Bond order:

  $\begin{array}{l}\text{b}\text{=}\frac{\text{1}}{\text{2}}\text{(N-N*)}\\ \text{Where,}\\ \text{N=is}\text{}\text{the}\text{number}\text{of}\text{electrons}\text{in}\text{bonding}\text{orbitals}\\ \text{N*=is}\text{}\text{the}\text{number}\text{of}\text{electrons}\text{in}\text{antibonding}\text{orbitals}\end{array}$
