Detailed Solution

Explanation-

  1. Electronic Configuration of O2+O2 has 16 electrons. O2+ loses one electron, leaving 15 electrons.

    Using the molecular orbital filling order:

    σ(2s)2, σ*(2s)2, σ(2pz)2, π(2px)2 = π(2py)2, π*(2px)2 = π*(2py)1

  2. Bond Order Formula:

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

    For O2+, Bond Order = (10 - 5) / 2 = 2.5

Given Options

  • N2+: Bond order = (10 - 5) / 2 = 2.5
  • CN-: Bond order = (10 - 4) / 2 = 3.0
  • CO: Bond order = (10 - 2) / 2 = 3.0
  • NO+: Bond order = (10 - 5) / 2 = 2.5

Final Answer

The bond order of O2+ is the same as in:

  • N2+
  • NO+
