(B) The molecular orbital configuration of $O_2^+$ is: $\sigma 1s^2, \sigma^* 1s^2, \sigma 2s^2, \sigma^* 2s^2, \sigma 2p_z^2, \pi 2p_x^2 = \pi 2p_y^2

(B) The molecular orbital configuration of $O_2^+$ is: $\sigma 1s^2, \sigma^* 1s^2, \sigma 2s^2, \sigma^* 2s^2, \sigma 2p_z^2, \pi 2p_x^2 = \pi 2p_y^2, \pi^* 2p_x^1$.Since the last electron enters the antibonding $\pi^*$ orbital,the electron lost during the ionization of $O_2^+$ to $O_2^{2+}$ is removed from the antibonding $\pi-$ orbital.
