Determining energy from bond length
Will longer bonds always have less energy than those that are shorter? Will double/triple bonds always be shorter than single bonds?

Re: Determining energy from bond length
Yes, longer bonds are always weaker and therefore require less energy to break. Shorter bonds are stronger and require more energy to break. Thing of this relation as the atoms that share more are more strongly bonded.
