During the change ofO2toO2-, the incoming electron goes to the orbital:

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

Molecular orbital configuration ofO2(16electrons)σ1s2, σ* 1s2, σ2s2, σ*2s2, σ2pz2, π2px2=π2py2, π*2px2=π*2py1
When an electron is added, it enters theπ*2pxorbital and the configuration becomesσ1s2, σ*1s2, σ2s2, σ*2s2, σ2pz2, π2px2=π2py2, π*2px2=π*2py1
