Compare the relative stability of the following species and indicate their magnetic properties: `O_(2)`,`O_(2)^(o+)`,`O_(2)^(ө)`(superoxide),`O_(2)^(-2)`(peroxoide).A. `O_(2)^(2-)gt O_(2)^(-)gt O_(2)gt O_(2)^(+)`B. `O_(2)^(+)gtO_(2)gtO_(2)^(-)gtO_(2)^(-2)`C. `O_(2)^(+)gtO_(2)^(-)O_(2)^(-2)gtO_(2)`D. `O_(2)^(2-)gtO_(2)gtO_(2)^(-)gtO_(2)^(+)`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
Compare the relative ………
Stability `prop` Bond
`O_(2)` - Bond order `= 2`, Paramagnetic
`O_(2)^(+)` - Bond order `= 2.5` , Paramagnetic
`O_(2)^(-)` - Bond order `= 1.5` , Paramagnetic
Order of relative stability is
`O_(2)^(+)gtO_(2)gtO_(2)^(-1)gtO_(2)^(-2)`
