  2. Bond order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond_order

    The bond order itself is the number of electron pairs (covalent bonds) between two atoms. [3] For example, in diatomic nitrogen N≡N, the bond order between the two nitrogen atoms is 3 (triple bond). In acetylene H–C≡C–H, the bond order between the two carbon atoms is also 3, and the C–H bond order is 1 (single bond).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_orbital_diagram

    The σ from the 2p is more non-bonding due to mixing, and same with the 2s σ. This also causes a large jump in energy in the 2p σ* orbital. The bond order of diatomic nitrogen is three, and it is a diamagnetic molecule. [12] The bond order for dinitrogen (1σ g 2 1σ u 2 2σ g 2 2σ u 2 1π u 4 3σ g 2) is three because two electrons are now ...

  4. Chlorine dioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chlorine_dioxide

    Chlorine dioxide is a chemical compound with the formula ClO 2 that exists as yellowish-green gas above 11 °C, a reddish-brown liquid between 11 °C and −59 °C, and as bright orange crystals below −59 °C.

  5. Oxidation state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxidation_state

    The bond-order formula at the bottom is closest to the reality of four equivalent oxygens each having a total bond order of 2. That total includes the bond of order ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ to the implied cation and follows the 8 − N rule [7] requiring that the main-group atom's bond-order total equals 8 − N valence electrons of the neutral atom ...

  6. Molecular orbital theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_orbital_theory

    Bond order is the number of chemical bonds between a pair of atoms. The bond order of a molecule can be calculated by subtracting the number of electrons in anti-bonding orbitals from the number of bonding orbitals, and the resulting number is then divided by two. A molecule is expected to be stable if it has bond order larger than zero.

  7. Covalent bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covalent_bond

    The bond between the nitrogen and each oxygen is a double bond in one structure and a single bond in the other two, so that the average bond order for each N–O interaction is ⁠ 2 + 1 + 1 / 3 ⁠ = ⁠ 4 / 3 ⁠. [8]

  8. Lewis structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_structure

    Initially, one line (representing a single bond) is drawn between each pair of connected atoms. Each bond consists of a pair of electrons, so if t is the total number of electrons to be placed and n is the number of single bonds just drawn, t−2n electrons remain to be placed. These are temporarily drawn as dots, one per electron, to a maximum ...

  9. Chlorine oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chlorine_oxide

    Chlorine and oxygen can bond in a number of ways: chlorine monoxide radical, ClO•, chlorine (II) oxide radical; chloroperoxyl radical, ClOO•, chlorine (II) peroxide radical; chlorine dioxide, ClO 2, chlorine (IV) oxide; chlorine trioxide radical, ClO 3 •, chlorine (VI) oxide radical; chlorine tetroxide radical, ClO 4 •, chlorine (VII ...
