The bond energies in `NO, NO^(+), NO^(-)` follow the order

Options

A. `NO^(+) gt NO gt NO^(-)`
B. `NO^(+) lt NO lt NO^(-)`
C. `NO^(+) lt NO gt NO^(-)`
D. `NOgt NO^(+) gt NO^(-)`

Answer

A

Explanation

Bond order NO `= (1)/(2) (10 - 5) = 2.5 `
Bond order `NO^(+) = (1)/(2) (10 - 4) = 3.0 `
Bond order `NO^(-) = (1)/(2) (10 - 6) = 2.0 `
Since bond energies directily related to bond order .Therefore cannot order of increasing bond energies is `NO^(+) gt NO gt NO^(-)`
