Worked example: Interpreting potential energy curves of diatomic molecules | Khan Academy

Keep going! Check out the next lesson and practice what you’re learning: https://www.khanacademy.org/science/a... The length and energy of a bond are influenced by both the bond order and the size of the atoms in the bond. In general, the higher the bond order and the smaller the atoms, the shorter and stronger the bond. As shown in this video, we can use these relationships to match diatomic molecules to their potential energy curves.
