\\\text{In this change of O_{2}$ to $O_{2}^{-}$, ion, the electron adds on $\pi^{*}$ orbital.} \\ \\ \text{The configuration of $O_{2}$ is} \\ K K \sigma(2 s)^{2} \sigma^{*}(2 s)^{2} \sigma(2 p z)^{2} \pi(2 p x)^{2} \pi(2 p y)^{2} \pi^{*}(2 p x)^{1} \pi^{*}(2 p y)^{1} \\\\ \text{The configuration of $O_{2}^{-}$ is }\\ $K K \sigma(2 s)^{2} \sigma^{*}(2 s)^{2} \sigma(2 p z)^{2} \pi(2 p x)^{2} \pi(2 p y)^{2} \pi^{*}(2 p x)^{2} \pi^{*}(2 p y)^{1}$
