O(2) molecule consists of two oxygen ato...

`O_(2)` molecule consists of two oxygen atoms. In the molecule, nuclear force between the nuclei of the two atoms.

A

is not important because nuclear forces are short-ranged

B

is as important as electrostatic force for binding the two atoms

C

cancels the repulsive electrostatic force between the nuclei.

D

is not important because oxygen nucleus have equal number of neutrons and protons.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Because nuclear force is of short range. It is confined to one nucleus only. Where as distance between two nucleus can be larger also hence, nuclear force between two nucleus is not important.
