Solution

The correct option is B $H_{2} O_{2} > O_{3} > O_{2}$
The correct order of O−O bond length in $O_{2}$ , $H_{2} O_{2}$ and $O_{3}$
is $H_{2} O_{2} > O_{3} > O_{2}$

The increasing bond order is $H_{2} O_{2} (1) < O_{3} (1.5) < O_{2} (2)$ .
Higher is the bond order, lower is the bond length.
