Ans: Option (i) and option (ii)
Bond order depends on the electronic configuration of the molecular species, and the electronic configuration depends on the number of electrons a particular atom is contributing in its molecular structure.
The CN- species has a total of 14 electrons; 6 electrons from carbon atom, 7 electrons from nitrogen atom and 1 electron for the negative charge.
The NO+ species has a total of 14 electrons; 8 from oxygen atoms, 7 from nitrogen atom and 1 electron will be subtracted due to the positive charge on the species.
The O2 - species has a total

The three fundamental laws of chemistry are - Law of Definite Proportions, Law of Conservation of Mass, and Law of Multiple Proportions.
The three types of chemical bonds are - ionic, metallic and covalent bonds. When the electrons transfer between the atoms, they form the Ionic bonds by producing charged ions that are attracted to each other. When atoms share electrons, covalent bonds are created. When metal atoms share a sea of delocalized electrons, metallic bonds get created.
