5) Paramagnetic nature of O2 Molecule explained on the basis of​

Answer 1

$\huge\sf\fbox\purple{ANSWER}$

The atomic orbitals of the O atoms overlap to form orbitals of the oxygen molecules. ... Thus, oxygen has two unpaired electrons and is paramagnetic. So here molecular orbital theory is explained by the paramagnetic property. Therefore, option (A) is the correct answer.

Answer 2

Answer:

it is explained on the basis of molecular orbital theory.

In O2 molecule one electron remains unpaired. So it is attracted by magnetic forces and hence paramagnetic in nature.
