    Which sequence correctly describes a relative bond strength of oxygen molecule, super-oxide ion and peroxide ion:

    A)  \[{{O}_{2}}>O_{2}^{-}>O_{2}^{2-}\]      

    B)  \[{{O}_{2}}>O_{2}^{-}<O_{2}^{2-}\]

    C)  \[{{O}_{2}}<O_{2}^{-}>O_{2}^{2-}\]

    D)  \[{{O}_{2}}<O_{2}^{-}<O_{2}^{2-}\]                                              

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    Bond strength depends on bond order. More is bond order, more is the strength. Bond order of \[{{O}_{2}}=2\] Bond order of \[O_{2}^{-}=1.5\] Bond order of \[O_{2}^{2-}=1.0\] So order of relative bond strength, is\[{{O}_{2}}>O_{2}^{-}>O_{2}^{2-}\]
