MCQ
The bond order for $\text{O}^+_2,\text{C}_2$ are :
  • $2.5, 2$
  • B
    $2, 3$
  • C
    $3, 2$
  • D
    $1.5, 2.0$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$2.5, 2$
$\text{O}^+_2$ has bond order $2.5$
$\text{B.O.}=\frac12(10-5)=\frac52$ In $\ce{C_2(12)}$
$\text{B.O.}=\frac12(8-4)=2$
$\text{B.O.}=\frac12(\text{N}_\text{b}-\text{N}_\text{a})$ where $\ce{N_b}$ is bonding and $\ce{N_a}$ is antibonding electrons.
