Q. The bond order in NO is 2.5 while that in $NO^+$ is 3. Which of the following statements is true for these two species ?

AIEEEAIEEE 2004Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure

Solution:

B.O. in NO is 2.5 while that NO+ is 3. As B.O. is inversely proportional to bond length, bond length in NO is more than in $NO^+$
