Consider the following species
`CN^(-),CN^(-),NO and `CN`.
Which one of these will hqave the highest bond order ?

A

`NO`

B

`CN^(-)`

C

`CN^(+)`

D

`CN`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`CN^(-) rArr ` bond order is 3
`NO rArr ` bond order is 2.5
`CN^(+) rArr ` bond order is 2
`CN rArr ` bond order is 2.5
Hence, `CN^(-)` has higher bond order.
