Answer» Correct Answer - A `[O=O]^(-)` has `MO` configuration `sigma1s^(2)sigma**,sigma2s^(2)**2s^(2),sigma2p^(2)pi2p_(x)^(2)pi2p_(y)^(2)pi**2p_(y)^(2)pi**2p_(x)^(2)pi**2p_(y)^(1)` `[O=O]^(2-)` has `MO` configuration `sigma1s^(2)**1s^(2),sigma2s^(2)sigma**2s^(2),sigma2p^(2)pi2p_(x)^(2)pi2p_(y)^(2)pi**2p_(x)^(2)pi**2p_(y)^(2)` |
