The multiplicity of a chemical bond is determined by the number of electron pairs that occupy the region between the two bonded atoms in bonding molecular orbitals. The hydrogen molecule has, for example, a single bond with two electrons in one orbital formed from the 1s orbitals on each atom.

Bond multiplicity refers to no. of possible spin orientations of the electrons while bond order determines the no of shared pair of electrons.
