Molecular Orbital (MO) Diagram for O2(-)

preview_player
Показать описание
When two oxygen atoms overlap, the sigma(2p) molecular orbital is LOWER in energy than the pi(2p) orbitals. This different from Nitrogen, where it's the other way around.
O2(-1) is just like regular molecular oxygen, but the extra electron causes its bond to be unstable. Its bond order is 1.5

thanks it took me so long to find someone who actually explains it well

Just for anyone wondering about the magnetic nature. It's paramagnetic in nature.

Thanks a lot dear sir 🎉 you are a great teacher

It would be 8 electrons because it's valence electrons + core electrons right?

omg thank you so much..i never understood this but now i can say i do..thank you so much again for this amazing explanation.

why O2 => 17? 8 + 8 + 1
I don't know why plus 1?

Could you go through heteronuclear diatomics and triatomic MO diagrams?

So wt kinda bond is in between the two oxygen....I mean is it single, double...??!! As I know, we can determine the type of bonds bases on the bond orders but here, the bond order is one and a half and we have no bond as such so can u elaborate on
I mean for instance the bond order of an ordinary oxygen molecule is 2 and indeed it has a double bond in between so how can we determine O2- bond

Oxygen brings 6 valence electrons not 8. It’s not a noble gas.

Thanks for posting this. My university should hire you to be my chem professor instead

This is wrong because the bond order for o2 is 2

actually molecule bonds have nothing to do with atomic bonds?

This is not useful for studying the MOEB Diagram
