Coordinating conjuction + Article ?

I'd like to know more for "Article". Please see these sentences.

[1] I'm going to buy an apple and banana (okay?)
[2] I'm going to buy an apple and a banana (okay?)
[3] I'm going to buy an apple or banana(okay?)
[4] I'm going to buy an apple or an banana(okay?)
[5] I'm going to buy an apple but banana(okay?)
[6] I'm going to buy an apple but an banana(okay?)
[7] I'm going to buy neither an apple nor an banana(okay?)
[8] I'm going to buy neither an apple nor banana(okay?)

Sometimes I've felt I don't need A/AN in the front of second noun connected with "coordinating conjunctions"like AND and OR. I'd like to know it clear through this time.
Thank you for your teachings in advance.
