How to find the Bond length of N(2)

[Mutebuttongt]

Homework Statement

I know that The diameter is 0.33nm but I am not sure if this is relevant.

The Attempt at a Solution

The sources I have found say that bond strength is not something you calculate but look up. This seems unlikely to be the case for this question however I cannot find a way to do it.

Thank you

I think this belongs in the introductory physics section. If you have the radial distribution function representing the number density of other N2 atoms in some sphere around a particular N2 atom, then you will observe a peak at a distance < diameter of a nitrogen atom. Consider why this may be the case. Knowing the definition of bond length and with reference to the radial distribution function, you can compute the bond length.
