The bond length in O2^+, O2, O2^- and O...

The bond length in `O_2^+, O_2, O_2^-` and ` O_2^(2-)` follows the order :

A

`O_2^(2-) gt O_2^-1gt O_2gtO_2^+`

B

`O_2^(2-) gt O_2^- 1gtO_2gtO_2^+`

C

`O_2^(2-) gt O_2^- 1gtO_2gtO_2^+`

D

`O_2^(2-) gt O_2^-1gt O_2gtO_2^+`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

The bond length decrease with increase in bond order in diatomic molecule ( A result of molecular orbital theory ).
