Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Li 2 O arrow O 2- arrow diamagnetic Na 2 O 2 arrow O 2 2- arrow diamagnetic KO 2 arrow O 2- arrow paramagnetic

Q. The magnetic behavior of $L i_{2} O, N a_{2} O_{2}$ and $K O_{2}$ , respectively, are

diamagnetic, paramagnetic and diamagnetic

diamagnetic, diamagnetic and paramagnetic

paramagnetic, paramagnetic and diamagnetic

paramagnetic, diamagnetic and paramagnetic

$L i_{2} O \to O^{2 -} \to$ diamagnetic
$N a_{2} O_{2} \to O_{2}^{2 -} \to$ diamagnetic
$K O_{2} \to O_{2}^{-} \to$ paramagnetic
