meaning that N2 and O2 are stable, but F2 is not. (You could also have done this
problem by noticing that these species are isoelectronic to O2, F2, and Ne2, in that order
and only the first two of these are stable.)

Ne2 is has the same diagram as F2 shown in (b) bond order = 12 (8 8) = 0
!
2. You can use your results from problem 1!
+
(a) H2 H2 bond order 1 12 so bond weakens
+
(b) B2 B2 bond order 1 12 so bond weakens
-2 -
(c) C2 C2 bond order 3 2 12 so bond weakens
-2
(since C2 is isolectronic with (triple-bonded) N2)
+
(d) OF OF bond order 1 12 2 so bond strengthens
