  3. C I \(>\) III \(>\) II \(>\) IV
  4. D \(I>I I>I I I>I V\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) I \(>\) III \(>\) II \(>\) IV

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Bond order is the number of chemical bonds present between two atoms of a molecule. I. \(\mathrm{N}_2=\sigma 1 s^2, \sigma^* 1 s^2, \sigma 2 s^2, \sigma^* 2 s^2, \pi 2 p_x^2=\pi 2 p_y^2, \sigma 2 p_z^2\) Bond order \(=\frac{10-4}{2}=3\) II.…
