Answer» M.O. Electronic configuration of ` O_(2)^(-) = KK sigma _(2s)^(2) sigma _(2)^(**2) sigma _(2p_(z) p)^(2) pi_(2p_(x))^(2) pi_(2p_(y))^(2) pi_(2p_(x))^(**2) pi_(2p_(y))^(**1)` Bond order = ` (1)/(2) (8-5) = (3)/(2) = 1.5 ` M.O. Electronic configuration of ` O_(2)^(-) = KK sigma _(2s)^(2) sigma _(2)^(**2) pi_(2p_(x))^(2) pi_(2p_(y))^(2) pi_(2p_(z))^(1)` Bond order `= (1)/(2) (7-2) = (5)/(2) = 2.5 ` |
