Professor PC Thomas Classes · Answer

(b) : M.O. configuration of $\mathrm{O}_{2}^{+}$:\ $\left(\sigma 1 s^{2}ight)\left(\sigma^{*} 1 s^{2}ight)\left(\sigma 2 s^{2}ight)\left(\sigma^{*} 2 s^{2}ight)\left(\sigma 2 p_{z}^{2}ight)\left(\pi 2 p_{x}^{2}=\pi 2 p_{y}^{2}ight)\left(\pi^{*} 2 p_{x}^{1}ight)$\ B.O. $=\frac{10-5}{2}=2.5$\ B.O. of $\mathrm{O}_{2}=2$ Since, bond order of $\mathrm{O}_{2}^{+}$is higher than that of $\mathrm{O}_{2}$, bond dissociation energy of $\mathrm{O}_{2}^{+}$is higher than $\mathrm{O}_{2}$.\
