Dear student
 
Please ask only one Question in one thread.
The highest possible state for the nonmetals is equal to the total number of electrons present in the valence (outermost) shell of the atom with a plus sign.

The highest oxidation state refers to the total number of valence electrons in case of nin-metals and 8-total numer of valence electrons in case of metals.

Bond order tells us about the the number of bonds between two atoms.This means that greater number of pi orbitals are constricted so the atoms in the compound are more closer. So bond order is inversely proportional to bond length.
