Which of the following show maximum bond-order?&

Which of the following show maximum bond-order?&

Options

  1. AO2{O}_{2}
  2. BO2−{O}_{2}^{-}
  3. CO2+{O}_{2}^{+}
  4. DO22−{O}_{2}^{2 -}

Correct answer

C. O2+{O}_{2}^{+}

Step-by-step solution

∵Bondorder (BO)=Nb−Na2Bond order~\left(BO\right) = \dfrac{{N}_{b} - {N}_{a}}{2}

Here, Nb{N}_{b}~and Na{N}_{a} are the number of bonding and anti bonding electrons, respectively.

for O2,BO=10−62=2{O}_{2}, BO = \dfrac{10 - 6}{2} = 2

for O2−,BO=10−72=1.5{O}_{2}^{-}, BO = \dfrac{10 - 7}{2} = 1 . 5

for O2+,BO=10−52=2.5{O}_{2}^{+}, BO = \dfrac{10 - 5}{2} = 2 . 5

for O22−,BO=10−82=1{O}_{2}^{2 -}, BO = \dfrac{10 - 8}{2} = 1

Hence, maximum value for BOBO is for O2+{O}_{2}^{+}.
