The distribution of electrons among molecular orbitals is called the electronic configuration of the molecule which provides us the following very important informations about the molecule. (A)Stability of molecule : The molecule is stable if number of bonding moleculer orbital electrons (N_b) is greater than the number of antibonding molecular orbital electrons (N_a) . (B) Bond order : Bond order =1/2(N_b-N_a) A positive bond order means a stable molecule while a negative or zero bond order means an unstable molecule. ( C)Nature of the bond : Bond order 1,2 and 3 corresponds to single , double and triple bonds respectively. (D)Bond length: Bond length decreases as bond order increases. (E)Magnetic nature: Molecular orbitals in a molecule are doubly occupied , the substance is diamagnetic and if one or more molecular orbitals are singly occupied, it is paramagnetic. Which of the following statements is incorrect ?

MO' s are formed by the overlap of A'O s Two AO's combine to form two MO's called bonding molecular orbital (BMO) and antibonding molecular orbital (ABMO) Differnet AO' s of one atom combine with these AO 's of the second atom which have comparable energies and proper orienation Further, If the overlapping is head on, the MO is called 'pi' The MO's are filled with electrons following the same rules as followed for filling of atomic orbitals However the order of filling is not the same for all molecules or their ions Bond order is one of the most important parameter to compare a number of their characteristics Which of the following has pair is expected to have the same bond order ? .
