Solution

The correct options are
A $O_{2}$
B $F_{2}$
C $N O$
$N O$ , $O_{2}$ and $F_{2}$ are stabilized by removal of electron due to increase in the bond order.
$C N$ is destabilized by removal of electron due to decrease in the bond order.
The bond order of $N O$ increases from $2.5$ to $3$ when an electron is removed.
The bond order of $O_{2}$ increases from $2$ to $2.5$ when an electron is removed.
The bond order of $F_{2}$ increases from $1$ to $1.5$ when an electron is removed.
The bond order of $C N$ decreases from $2.5$ to $2$ when an electron is removed.
