What equation do we use to find bond order, as it relates to bond length?
Like I know the higher the bond order the shorter the bond length

Re: Bond Order
In class, it was mentioned the strength of a bond is measured by its dissociation energy which is the energy required to break the bonds. It ranges between a single, double or triple bond. The single bond is the longest and weakest while the triple bond is the shortest and strongest.
For example, N2 has a triple bond order connecting the atoms together

Re: Bond Order
I think to find the bond order itself we would have to find the most stable Lewis structure to see what types of bonds are present in the given molecule.

BO: (1/2)(number of bonds-number of anti bonds)
What exactly is an anti bond?
