Correct option: A

{O_2}^{^ + }

is paramagnetic and B.O is greater than

{O_2}

Option A (

{O_2}^{^ + }

is paramagnetic and B.O is greater than

{O_2}

) is correct because

{O_2}^+

has an unpaired electron making it paramagnetic, and its bond order is 2.5, which is greater than the bond order of

{O_2}

(which is 2).
