C_{2}^{-},F_{2}^{-},O_{2}^{-},NO^{-}

we know , stability of molecules \propto Bond order .

In C_{2}^{-} , the e^{-} enters in 6\; 2\rho z orbital

So the bond order =\frac{N_{b}-N_{a}}{2} will increase by 0.5

So, the stability would increase.


Option 1)

 C_{2}   

Option 2)

F_{2}

Option 3)

NO

Option 4)

O_{2}
