Calculate the bond order of n2 n2+ and compare their stability
Bond order of both N2+ and N2- is 2.5, but according the molecular orbital theory, N2- has more antibonding electrons than N2+. Also, more antibonding electrons lead to instability. For the purposes of this class, N2+ and N2- will be considered equal as they both have a bond order of 2.5.
