Bond order =
For O2 = = 2
For O2+ = = 2.5
How many molecules of H2O are there in 18g of water?
(Hint: Avagadro’s Number = 6.02 x 1023 atoms/mol)
Since , the number of molecules contained in one mole of a substance
= Avogadro's number (N)
= 6.022 x 1023 molecules ,
and , gram molar mass of water
= 18 g
18g H2O = 1mol water
one mol of water would contain
= 6.022 x 1023 molecules of water
As bond order increases bond dissociation energy also increases .
Thus
(i) the triple bonded with bond order
= 3
has the highest bond dissociation energy .
(ii) The doubly bonded with bond order
= 2
has lesser bond dissociation energy than
(iii) and both are single bonded having the same bond order
= 1
but , the electron - electron repulsive force ( e - e repulsion ) is maximum in a molecule due to its small size. This accounts for the lower bond dissociation energy of as compared to
