Oxygen (dioxygen), O2, and ozone (trioxygen), O3, are the two small gaseous allotrope molecules of the element oxygen. 

The bond orders for ground-state molecular oxygen (dioxygen, 02), for superoxide ion (02 -), and for (HOOH) are 2, 1.5, and 1, respectively. Tabled provides molecular orbital diagrams for dioxygen ( g , Ag, and g+) and superoxide ion, which illustrates the biradical character of 62 (-02-) and the delocalized spin density of 02 - (one-half spin per oxygen). 

The discovery and isolation of molecular oxygen (dioxygen, O2) was first reported in 1774 by Joseph Priestley, but was independently co-discovered by Scheele in Sweden, who gave it the name fire air (reported in 1777).i Because it did not... 

Ground-state molecular oxygen (dioxygen), an open-shell triplet (biradical) denoted by spectroscopists 35, is one of the most abundant and important life-supporting species on Earth. It can participate in some photochemically initiated reactions, sometimes called...
