Chemistry Question on Chemical bonding and molecular structure

What is the correct sequence of bond order ?

A

O2+>O2−>O2O^+_2 > O^-_2 > O_2

B

O2+>O2−1>O2+1O^+_2 > O_2^{-1} > O_2^{+1}

C

O2+>O2>O2−O_2^+ > O_2 > O^-_2

D

O2−1>O2+1>O2O^{-1}_2 > O_2^{+1} > O_2

Answer

O2+>O2>O2−O_2^+ > O_2 > O^-_2
