In which of the following ionization processes the bond energy has increased and also the magnetic behaviour has changed from paramagnetic to diamagnetic ?
$\mathrm{NO} \rightarrow \mathrm{NO}^{+}$
$\mathrm{N}_2 \rightarrow \mathrm{N}_2^{+}$
$\mathrm{C}_2 \rightarrow \mathrm{C}_2^{+}$
$\mathrm{O}_2 \rightarrow \mathrm{O}_2^{+}$
Solution
For $\mathrm{NO}$
Total no. of electrons $=15$
$\mathrm{B.O}=2.5$
Mag. Behaviour $=$ Paramagnetic
For $\mathrm{NO}^{+}$
Total no. of electrons $=14$
$\mathrm{B.O}$=3$
Mag. Behaviour $=$ Diamagnetic
