On the educational webpage, you need to use the unfilled (unpopulated) molecular-orbital (MO) diagram for a homonuclear diatomic molecule or ion, such as O₂, F₂, O₂⁺, F₂⁺, O₂⁻, or F₂⁻.**IMPORTANT:** This diagram includes only valance orbitals.### Diagram Overview:The MO diagram depicted includes orbitals arranged as follows:- **Left Side (Atomic Orbitals for One Atom):** - 2s orbital - 2p orbitals (three lines of equal energy)- **Middle (Molecular Orbitals):** - σ (sigma) 2s - σ* (sigma star) 2s - π (pi) 2p (two orbitals of equal energy) - σ (sigma) 2p - π* (pi star) 2p (two orbitals of equal energy) - σ* (sigma star) 2p- **Right Side (Atomic Orbitals for Another Atom):** - 2s orbital - 2p orbitals (three lines of equal energy)Dashed lines connect corresponding atomic orbitals to molecular orbitals, highlighting the interactions forming the molecular orbitals.### Instructions:1. **Complete the Diagram:** - Focus on the O₂⁺ molecular cation. - Indicate the electron populations for all valance molecular orbitals on scratch paper.2. **Determine the Bond Order:** - After filling in the electrons, calculate the bond order.### Question:What is the bond order in O₂⁺?- Options: - 0 - 1 - 1.5 - 2 - 2.5
