Bonding in Some Homonuclear Diatomic Molecules

Explain the magnetic nature of oxygen molecule.

How do you explain the paramagnetic property of ${\mathrm{O}}_2$ molecule using the molecular orbital configuration of ${\mathrm{O}}_2$ .

Calculate the bond order and predict the magnetic property of ${\mathrm{Li}}_2$ molecule.

What is the effect of the following ionisation process on the bond order in ${\mathrm{C}}_2$?

${\mathrm{C}}_2\stackrel{ }{\to }{{\mathrm{C}}_2}^{+}+{\mathrm{e}}^{-}$

O₂ is a paramagnetic molecule

The correct statement with regard to ${{\mathrm{H}}_2}^{+} \mathrm{and} {{\mathrm{H}}_2}^{-}$ is:
