Chemistry Question on Chemical bonding and molecular structure

Consider the following species 1 . [O2]2[O_2]^{2-} 2. [CO]+[CO]^+ 3. [O2]+[O_2]^+ Among these sigma bond alone is present in

A

1 alone

B

2 alone

C

3 alone

D

1 and 2

Answer

1 alone

Explanation

Solution

\because Among the given species, all are di-atomic species. Only [O2]2\left[ O _{2}\right]^{2-} contain one σ\sigma bond between two bonded atoms.
