medium
During change of $O_2$ to $O_2^-$ ion, the electron adds on which one of the following orbitals
A
${\sigma ^ * }$ orbital
B
${\sigma}$ orbital
C
${\pi ^ * }$ orbital
D
${\pi}$ orbital
Solution
$O_2$ to $O_2^-$ $el^-$ enters in $\pi _{2px}^ * = \pi _{2py}^ * $ $O_2\,\to\,O_2^-$ $el^-$ is entered in $ABMO$ orbital
