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

Answer»

is not important because nulear forces are short-ranged
is as important as electrostatic FORCE for binding the two atoms
cancels the REPULSIVE electrostatice force betweenthe NUCLEI
is not important because oxygen nucleus have equal number of neutrons and protons

Solution :In the given oxygen molecule, NUCLEAR force between the nuclei of two atoms is not important because nuclear forces being ranged are confined only within one particular nuleaus. The distance between the nuclei of two atoms MAY be large. So the nuclear forces between two nuclei may not be operative/effective. Choice (a) is correct.
