Hints And Tricks In Chemistry

Bond Energy: The energy released when bond is

formed is called bond energy
Hints:
👉 Bond energy is inversely proportional to the size
of atoms.
👉 Bond energy is invesely proportional to the
Bond length.
👉 Bond energy is directly proportional to the E.N
of the atoms.
👉 Bond energy is directly proportional to the bond
order.
👉 Experimental bond energy for polar molecules
will be greater than the calculated bond energy.
Examples:
1) The bond having highest bond energy will be
A) C=C
B) C=S
C) C=N
D) C=O
Solution:
E.N of Oxygen is greater and smaller size than the
rest..so C=O has greater bond energy
2) Correct order of bond energy is
A) N2 > N2^+1 > N2^-1 > N2^-2
B) N2^-2 > N2^-1 > N2^+1 > N2
C) N2^+1 > N2 > N2^-2 > N2^-1
D) N2^-1 > N2 > N2^+1 > N2^-2
Solution:
Find Bond order for each so
N2=3
N2^+1= 2.5
N2^-1=2.5
N2^-2=2
Thus
Option A is correct.
It is noted that N2^+1 is more stable than N2^-1
due to zero electron in ABMO.
