The correct answer is "Both 1 1 and 2 2 ".

A molecule that satisfies 1 1 is CO 2 \text{CO}_2 .

A molecule that satisfies 2 is O 3 \text{O}_3 .

can u give some more e.g. as I 'm not convinced

Well, giving one is enough to show that each of the two statements are true...

Another case of 1 is methane C H 4 CH_4 , and I can't think of any example for the second case but there should be more.
