The paramagnatic property of the oxygen molecule due to the presence of unpaired electrons present in:

A$$(\sigma 2p_x)^1$$ and $$(\sigma^*2p_x)^1$$
B$$(\sigma 2p_x)^1$$ and $$(\pi 2p_y)^1$$
C$$(\pi^* 2p_y)^1$$ and $$(\pi^*2p_x)^1$$
Correct Answer
D$$(\pi^* 2p_y)^1$$ and $$(\pi2p_y)^1$$

Solution



The paramagnetic property in oxygen came through unpaired electron which can be explained which can be explained by molecular orbital theory.
