What is the bond order of c2−?express the bond order numerically?
diamong [38]
MO Diagram of C₂⁻ is shown below, 

Bond order is calculated as,

             Bond Order  =  [# of e⁻s in BMO]-[#of e⁻s in ABMO] / 2
Where,

BMO  = Bonding Molecular Orbital

ABMO  =  Anti-Bonding Molecular Orbital

Putting values,

             Bond Order  =  [9]-[4] / 2

             Bond Order  =  5 / 2

             Bond Order  =  2.5

All compounds of carbon are made by _____.
Andrew [12]

Answer:

Covalent bonding

Explanation:

Covalent bonding is the bond that holds all compound that are formed by carbon.

It is a very strong intermolecular bond that holds the structure of carbon compounds in place.

Principally, covalent compounds are formed by sharing of electrons between contributing atoms.

Covalent bonds are the strongest bond types. A reason for this conclusion can be see in case of diamond. Here, there is a covalent linkage between the atoms present and the strength of these bonds is responsible for how strong the diamond crystal is

The value for ψ in root tissue was found to be -1.6 bars. If you place the root tissue in a 0.1 m solution of sucrose at 20°c in
Allisa [31]

Answer:

\Psi=\Psi_s+\Psi_p\\

I=1;C=0.1;R=0.0831\\

T=20+273=293~C\\

as beaker is open so

\Psi_p=0\\

\Psi=\Psi_s\\\Psi=-2.43483

As ψof solution is lower than the root tissue so water will move out of the root to the solution
