Question

How to write the molecular orbital configuration of
${o2}^{ - } and \: {o2}^{2 - }$
Also state the Bond Order, Magnetic nature and stability of the molecule​

Answer 1

Answer:

please mark me as brainlist

I will follow you

Explanation:

As it can be seen from the MOT of O

2 , The electrons in the highest occupied molecular orbital are unpaired therefore it is paramagnetic in nature. Also, the bond order can be calculated as [N b −N a ]/2=[10−6]/2=2. Therefore there is a double bond present as O=O.

Answer 2

Draw the molecular orbital diagram for the oxygen molecule, O2. From this diagram, calculate the bond order for O2.
