bond order

Postby Sophia Dinh 1D » Sun Dec 01, 2019 11:46 pm

what specifically about bond order should we know for the final?

I think just a general sense of what it means in relation to bond strength and strength. So a bond order of 3, or a triple bond, is shorter and stronger than a bond order of 2, or a double bond

I don’t think we need to know the specifics of bond order, I would recommend studying briefly if you’re unsure.

I don't think this would be a topic on the final as we haven't really spent time to cover it but I would study the basics just to be safe.

Just know that bond order correlates to the relative bond strength (3-triple, 2 double, etc.) and you should be good on this topic

I think we just need to know the general info so just the differences in bond length when using single, double, triple bonds and also how the size of the atoms affects bond length as well.

I believe you should just know the relative strengths of single, double, and triple bonds. Single bonds are the longest and weakest, triple bonds are the shortest and strongest.

I am not too sure what exactly the final will cover in terms of bond order, but I believe it would be good to know relative bond strengths: single --> weakest, triple --> strongest, and other bonds such as dipole-dipole, van der Wal forces, and etc.
