The bond dissociation energies for various astrophysically important diatomic molecules have been determined using a formula in which bond dissociation energies are the sum of the geometric average of the component bond energies and 32.058 times the Pauling electronegativity difference. Bond orders are estimated according to the formula of Reddy et al. (1985, 1987). The results confirm the definition of bond order given by Politzer (1969). The estimated bond energies are found to agree well with previous values and to give an error of 8 percent, as compared to the error of 26.8 percent found using Pauling's (1960) equation.
