medium · MCQ · Q-7CCCAA
Which of the following species has the highest bond order?
- A.O2-
- B.O2
- C.O2+Correct answer
- D.O22-
Solution
Total electrons in = 17, Bond order = 1.5. Total electrons in = 16, Bond order = 2.0. Total electrons in = 15, Bond order = 2.5. Total electrons in = 18, Bond order = 1.0. Hence, has the highest bond order.
