Answer 2

Answer:

We have to calculate bond order of Lithium molecule.

We know that formula of Lithium molecule is

$Li_2$

Total number of electrons in a molecule are 6

Now,

Now MOT configuration of molecule will be,

$\sigma1s {}^{2} , \sigma {}^{*} 1s {}^{2} , \sigma2s {}^{2}$

So,

no. of electrons in bonding molecular orbital = 4

i.e.

$N_b=4$

And

no. of electrons in antibonding molecular orbital = 2

i.e.

$N_a=2$

Now ,

$BOND \: ORDER=\dfrac{N_b-N_a}{2} \\ =\frac{4-2}{2} \\ \frac{2}{2} \\ = 1$

So,

$\red{\boxed{\boxed{BOND \: ORDER = 1}}}$
