Question

Which of the following has the minimum bond length ?
(a) O₂⁺
(b) O₂⁻
(c) O₂²⁻
(d) O₂

Answer 1

• The minimum bond length is option (a) O2+

• bond order for O2+ is 2.5, O2- is 1.5, O2 2- is 1 and O2 is 2.

• bond order high , bond length low.

Answer 2

O₂⁺ is the minimum bond length.

Explanation:

Bond length

• In a molecule there is an average interval between the two bond atoms.
• It is the property of transferable bonds between atoms of constant type, balance molecules are relatively independent.
• It is similar to bond order.

Bond order = (amount of bonding - amount of electrons as antibonding)/2

• When electrons in bond are more, the bond formed is less.
• The bond dissociation energy and bond strength are inversely related to bond length.
• It contains 15 electrons and one electron in the antibonding orbital, using molecular theory.
• It has more dissociation energy. It contains unpaired electron and it is paramagnetic.
