According to molecular orbital theory,antibonding molecular orbitals of $O_2$ contain

Given below are two statements:
Statement $I$: $A$ $\pi$ bonding $MO$ has lower electron density above and below the inter-nuclear axis.
Statement $II$: The $\pi^*$ antibonding $MO$ has a node between the nuclei.
In the light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

Find the odd-electron molecules from the following:
$(i) C_2, (ii) H_2, (iii) SCl_2, (iv) NO, (v) NO_2$

Which of the following is not paramagnetic?

The paramagnetic nature of the oxygen molecule $(O_2)$ is best explained on the basis of:

The linear combination of atomic orbitals to form molecular orbitals takes place only when the combining atomic orbitals:
$A$. have the same energy
$B$. have the minimum overlap
$C$. have same symmetry about the molecular axis
$D$. have different symmetry about the molecular axis
Choose the most appropriate from the options given below:
