Actually Bohr said that electrons traveled in circular orbits around the nucleus, yes their is a difference between an orbit and an orbital, and he introduced his theory in 1913.

MO theory is a theory, so it wasn't discovered, it was invented.
The first article about MO: John Lennard-Jones, 1929.
Neils Bohr discovered the atom in 1913
it depends on the molecular orbital theory
Superior is a difficult term. The latest versions valence bond theory and molecular orbital theories give similar answers. The simple old versions work from different premises- valence bond assumes localised pair bonds molecular orbital theory is better ate predicting spectroscopic properties. VSEPR is different again and focuses on the geometry around a central atom- and as such is better than both the simple versions of the other theories.
no, it's a molecular orbit that can be occupied by two electrons of a covalent bond(:
Diffusion can be explained by the kinetic-molecular theory.

Molecular orbital theory(MOT) provides information about both molecular shape and molecular bonding.
Orbital hybridization provides information about both molecular bonding and molecular shape.
it depends on the molecular orbital theory
according to molecular orbital theory{MOT} O+ has bond order 2.5 and O has bond order 2 but actually O is more stable than O+.
Molecular orbital theory determines molecular structure that the electrons are not assigned as individual bonds between atoms, however, are treated as moving under the influence of the nuclei in the whole molecule.

Gilbert Lewis followed by Linus Pauling who is credited with the quantum mechanical approach, called valence bond theory (distinguishing it from the more recent molecular orbital theory), which is based on Lewis's electron pair bonding theory now taught as Lewis "dot" diagrams.
Molecular consists of multiple atomic orbitals
In molecular orbital theory, MO theory, molecular orbitals are "built" from atomic orbitals. A common approach is to take a linear combination of atomic orbitals (LCAO), specifically symmetry adapted linear combinations (SALC) using group theory. The formation of a bond is essentially down to the overlap of the orbitals, the orbitals being of similar energy and the atomic orbital wave functions having the correct symmetry.
Pi electron pairs are electron pairs residing in the p orbital (as in s, p, d, f). This is the electron orbital responsible for double bonds and conjugated molecules according to molecular orbital theory.
When two atoms combine, the overlap of their atomic orbitals produces molecular orbitals. An atomic orbital belongs to a particular atom, whereas a molecular orbital belongs to a molecule as a whole. Much like an atomic orbital, two electrons are required to fill a molecular orbital. A bonding orbital is a molecular orbital occupied by the two electrons of a covalent bond
according to MOT each energy level can be occupied by 2 electrons which must have opposite spins these pairs of electrons considered to occupy molecular orbital. so molecular orbital is formed from the overlap of the atomic orbitals of the atoms making up the bond.
