As we learnt in 

Bond Order -

Bond order is defined as one half the difference between the number of electrons present in the bonding and the antibonding orbitals.

- wherein

Bond \:Order=\frac{N_{b}-{N_{a}}}{2}

 

 We know that bond order \propto \frac{1}{Bond\: Length}

of all the species given, O_{2}^{+} has the highest bond order at 2.5 thereby giving it the lowest bond length.

Option 2)

O_{2}^{-}

This is incorrect option

Option 3)
