Question

Given below are two statements:

Statement I:
The number of species among $$\mathrm{BF_4^-}$$, $$\mathrm{SiF_4}$$, $$\mathrm{XeF_4}$$ and $$\mathrm{SF_4}$$,
that have unequal E–F bond lengths is two. Here, E is the central atom.

Statement II:
Among $$\mathrm{O_2^-}$$, $$\mathrm{O_2^{2-}}$$, $$\mathrm{F_2}$$ and $$\mathrm{O_2^+}$$, $$\mathrm{O_2^-}$$ has the highest bond order.
