Process Change in magnetic nature Bonad order change N 2 &#8594; N 2 + Dia &#8594; Para 3 &#8594; 2 . 5 NO &#8594; NO + Para &#8594; Dia 2 . 5 &#8594; 3 O 2 &#8594; O 2 - 2 Para &#8594; Dia 2 &#8594; 1 O 2 &#8594; O 2 + Para &#8594; Para 2 &#8594; 2 . 5

Process	Change in magnetic nature	Bonad order change
$N_{2} \to N_{2}^{+}$	Dia $\to$ Para	$3 \to 2.5$
$NO \to {NO}^{+}$	Para $\to$ Dia	$2.5 \to 3$
$O_{2} \to O_{2}^{- 2}$	Para $\to$ Dia	$2 \to 1$
$O_{2} \to O_{2}^{+}$	Para $\to$ Para	$2 \to 2.5$

In which of the following processes, the bond order increases and paramagnetic character changes to…
