Detailed Solution

The molecular electroinc configuration along with their bond orders (BO) are as follows:

N2    KK(σ2s)2(σ2s)2π2px2π2py2σ2pz2;    BO=3O2    KK(σ2s)2(σ2s)2σ2pz2π2px2π2py2π2px1π2py1;    BO=2O2    KK(σ2s)2σ2s2σ2pz2π2px2π2py2π2px2π2py1;    BO=112The larger the bond order, larger the dissociation energy.
