Question

formula to find the total number of covalent bond?​

Answer 1

Draw the Lewis structure.

Determine the type of bonds between the two atoms.

0: No bond

1: Single bond

2: double bond

3: triple bond

If the bond order is zero, the molecule cannot form. The higher bond orders indicate greater stability for the new molecule. In molecules that have resonance bonding, the bond order does not need to be an integer.
