In which of the following processes, the bond order increases and paramagnetic character changes to diamagnetic one?

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

\mathrm{NO} \rightarrow \mathrm{NO}^{+}

Option C (

NO \rightarrow NO^+

) is correct because the bond order increases from 2.5 to 3, and the paramagnetic NO becomes diamagnetic

NO^+

by losing an electron from an antibonding orbital.
