The important condition/s required for the linear combination of atomic orbitals to form molecular orbitals is:

1.  The combining atomic orbitals must have the exact or nearly the same energy.
2.  The combining atomic orbitals must have proper symmetry about the molecular axis.
3.  The combining atomic orbitals must overlap to the maximum extent.
4.  All of these.

Given below are two statements:
Assertion (A):  An atomic orbital is monocentric, whereas a molecular orbital is polycentric.
Reason (R): An electron in an atomic orbital is influenced by one nucleus whereas in a molecular orbital, it is influenced by two or more nuclei depending upon the number of atoms in a molecule.

In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is True but (R) is False.
4. Both (A) and (R) are False.
