Can a stable molecule have zero bond order ? Justify your answer.

The molecule having bond order 3 is

The distribution of electrons among molecular orbitals is called the electronic configuration of the molecule which provides us the following very important informations about the molecule. (A)Stability of molecule : The molecule is stable if number of bonding moleculer orbital electrons (N_b) is greater than the number of antibonding molecular orbital electrons (N_a) . (B) Bond order : Bond order =1/2(N_b-N_a) A positive bond order means a stable molecule while a negative or zero bond order means an unstable molecule. ( C)Nature of the bond : Bond order 1,2 and 3 corresponds to single , double and triple bonds respectively. (D)Bond length: Bond length decreases as bond order increases. (E)Magnetic nature: Molecular orbitals in a molecule are doubly occupied , the substance is diamagnetic and if one or more molecular orbitals are singly occupied, it is paramagnetic. N_2 has greater dissociation energy than N_2^+ , where as O_2 has a lower dissociation energy than O_2^+ because
