A simplified applified of `MO` theory to the hypotheritical molecule `OF` would gives its bond order as:

Options

A. 2
B. 1.5
C. `1.0`
D. 0.5

Answer

B

Explanation

OF = Total 17 electrons
`therefore OF :K K^(**)(sigma 2s)^(2)(sigma^(**)2s)^(2)(sigma2p_(z))^(2) " "(pi 2p_(x))^(2)(pi 2p_(y))^(2) (pi^(**)2p_(x))^(2) (pi^(**)2p_(y))^(1)`
