detailed solution

Correct option is A

Valence electrons of N2=10 Electronic Configuration (σ2s)2(σ2s)2π2px2π2py2σ2pz2

Bond order =(82)/2=3

Valence electrons of NO+=10  (σ2s)2(σ2s)2π2px2π2py2σ2pz2

Bond order =(82)/2=3

Valence electrons of CO=10; Same as NO+

Valence electrons of CN=10; Same as NO+

Valence electrons of N2=11 Bond order =(92)/2=3.5

Valence electrons of O2+=11Electronic configuration (σ2s)2(σ2s)2σ2pz2π2px2π2py2π2px1

Bond order =(83)/2=2.5
