Tabulated bond energies and bond lengths are average values based on measurements for that bond found
compounds. As such, they can provide a predictive tool but may not provide an estimate of the exact bond c
given instance. These values depend not only on the atoms involved in the bonds but on the type of bond (si
triple). In general, they remain quite useful predictive tools but the limitations of applying an average value to
must be kept in mind. Based on this general principle, bond order can be related in a qualitative predictive wa
bond energy and average bond length.

Bond order corresponds to the type of bond. Single
bonds have a bond order of 1, double bonds have a
bond order of 2, and triple bonds have a bond order
of 3.
A higher bond order corresponds to higher bond
energy for series of similar atoms. Therefore a
carbon-carbon triple bond is stronger than a
carbon-carbon double bond, which is stronger than
a carbon-carbon single bond.
A higher bond order corresponds to a shorter bond
length for series of similar atoms as well. Therefore
triple bonds are the shortest, and single bonds are
the longest when comparing bonds between the
same two atoms.
