    The bond length the species \[{{O}_{2}},O_{2}^{+}\]and \[O_{2}^{-}\] are in the order of                                             [MP PET 2004]

    A)                 \[O_{2}^{+}>{{O}_{2}}>O_{2}^{-}\]        

    B)                 \[O_{2}^{+}>O_{2}^{-}>{{O}_{2}}\]

    C)                 \[{{O}_{2}}>O_{2}^{+}>O_{2}^{-}\]        

    D)                 \[O_{2}^{-}>{{O}_{2}}>O_{2}^{+}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

               As bond order increase bond length decrease the bond order of species are                 \[=\frac{\text{number of bonding electron -Number of }a\text{.}b\text{. electron}}{2}\]                    For \[{{O}_{2}}=\frac{10-6}{2}=2\] ;                     \[O_{2}^{+}=\frac{10-5}{2}=2.5\]                    \[O_{2}^{-}=\frac{10-7}{2}=1.5\]                                 So, bond order \[O_{2}^{+}>{{O}_{2}}>O_{2}^{-}\] and bond length are \[O_{2}^{+}>{{O}_{2}}>O_{2}^{-}\].
