MCQ
The correct bond order in the following species is
  • A
    $O_{2}^+ < O_{2}^- < O_2^{2+}$
  • $O_{2}^- < O_{2}^+ < O_2^{2+}$
  • C
    $O_2^{2+} < O_{2}^+ < O_{2}^-$
  • D
    $O_2^{2+} < O_{2}^- < O_{2}^+$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$O_{2}^- < O_{2}^+ < O_2^{2+}$
b
According to molecular orbital theory (MOT)
