Why bond order of co is greater than that of co plus?

CO+ has a shorter bond length than CO- so its bond order is greater! As student yoyu are prbably expecte to use an MO diagram removing an electron from the HOMO highest occupied molecular orbital. there are different diagrams around. Some of them indicate that bond order will increase as you are removing an electron from an anti-bonding orbital a 2s-sigma. You may wish to look at the digram that your teacher has recommended and use that to get the "right" answer - the test is how to use MO diagrams after all.


Is CO ionic or molecular?

CO is molecular

Why does co forms numerable metal complexes?

Carbon monoxide forms complexes called carbonyls. The carbon monoxide bonds via the carbon atom. A full molecular orbital treatment shows that there is a pair of electrons on the carbon that can be donated to the metal forming a sigma bond; There are filled d orbitals on the metal that "back donate" into empty anti-bonding molecular orbitals on the CO. This is a push me pull you synergistic effect.


What are pi acceptor ligand?

ligands which can accept electrons from the metal d orbital into there anti bonding orbital such as CO, or C=C

Does CO have ionic bonds?

no. It has covalent bonds only
