State the bond order and indicate whether the species is paramagnetic
`CN^(o+)` (b) `CN` (c ) `CN^(Θ)` (d) No .

Explanation

To determine the bond order and paramagnetism of the species CN^(o+), CN, CN^(Θ), and NO, we will follow these steps:

### Step 1: Determine the total number of electrons for each species.

1. **CN^(o+)**:
- Carbon (C) has 6 electrons.
- Nitrogen (N) has 7 electrons.
- The positive charge (o+) indicates the loss of 1 electron.
