Interpretation:
The four different molecules are given in the statement and which is one diamagnetic character, and correct molecule should be identified.
Concept Introduction:
Paramagnetic: The Paramagnetic properties are due to the presence of some unpaired electrons, and from the realignment of the electron paths caused by the external magnetic field.
Diamagnetic: The molecule or atoms have paired electrons in respective shell, this type of alignments diamagnetic.
Bond order: The bond order has defined as the net number of bonding electrons pairs linking a pair of atoms. This same concept can be applied directly to molecular orbital theory, but not bond order is defined as.
