What is the Bond Order of Li(2)(minus) anion molecule? i am getting as .5 but the answer is 1.5.Please explain How?

Li- has three electrons in valence shell (bonding electrons =3)

therfore, bond order =(nof of bonding electrons)/2. =3/2=1.5 (NO OF ANTI BONDING electrons =0)

Upvote this if it helps :D

no of bonding elecrtons =3 (valence), anti bonding =0 (given its state)

therfore =bond order =3/2=1.2
