The following apply to the oxygen molecule, O₂:

(a) bond order 2, 2 unpaired electrons

(b) bond order 2, no unpaired electrons

(c) bond order 1, 2 unpaired electrons

(d) bond order 1, no unpaired electrons

(e) bond order 1½, no unpaired electrons

_________________________________________

The bond order in C₂^- would be:

(a) 1 (b) 1.5 (c) 2 (d) 2.5 (e) 3

Please show the steps for the above two questions, I'm little confused about the bond order and the pair electron in these two questions.

I do rate the answer, so please answer it best you can.

Part A: Rank these transition metal ions in order of decreasing number of unpaired electrons. If two ions have the same number of unpaired electrons, overlap them such that the two appear in a single column: V3+, Mn4+, Ni2+, Fe3+, Cu+ Consider the following vanadium species. Arrange them in order of strongest to weakest oxidizing agent: [V(H2O)6]2+, [V(H2O)6]3+, [V(H2O)4O]2+, VO43−

Provide the route that one oxygen molecule, O2, will take as it moves from the room air up to its arrival inside the mitochondrion of a cell in a skeletal muscle fiber of the leg. Be detailed, particularly in passing through cell membranes. Write this in flow chart format, using words linked by arrows. Indicate which portion of this route is considered internal respiration, and which portion is considered external respiration.
