  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).

  3. Degree of unsaturation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degree_of_unsaturation

    For hydrocarbons, the DBE (or IHD) tells us the number of rings and/or extra bonds in a non-saturated structure, which equals the number of hydrogen pairs that are required to make the structure saturated, simply because joining two elements to form a ring or adding one extra bond (e.g., a single bond changed to a double bond) in a structure reduces the need for two H's.

  4. Double bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_bond

    [1] [2] Double bonds were introduced in chemical notation by Russian chemist Alexander Butlerov. [citation needed] Double bonds involving carbon are stronger and shorter than single bonds. The bond order is two. Double bonds are also electron-rich, which makes them potentially more reactive in the presence of a strong electron acceptor (as in ...

  5. Octet rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octet_rule

    The bond order is 2.5, since each two-electron bond counts as one bond while the three-electron bond has only one shared electron and therefore corresponds to a half-bond. Dioxygen is sometimes represented as obeying the octet rule with a double bond (O=O) containing two pairs of shared electrons. [15]

  6. Resonance (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resonance_(chemistry)

    This mixed single and double bond (or triple bond) character is typical for all molecules in which bonds have a different bond order in different contributing structures. Bond lengths can be compared using bond orders. For example, in cyclohexane the bond order is 1 while that in benzene is 1 + (3 ÷ 6) = 1 + 1 ⁄ 2. Consequently, benzene has ...

  7. Covalent radius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covalent_radius

    In principle, the sum of the two covalent radii should equal the covalent bond length between two atoms, R(AB) = r(A) + r(B). Moreover, different radii can be introduced for single, double and triple bonds (r 1, r 2 and r 3 below), in a purely operational sense. These relationships are certainly not exact because the size of an atom is not ...

    The result is the approximate number of years it will take your money to double. For example, a Series EE bond issued between Nov. 1, 2024, and April 30, 2025, will have an interest rate of 2.6 ...

  9. Molecular orbital diagram - Wikipedia

    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 ...
