MCQ
Inertness of ${N_2}$ gas is due to
- ANo vacant $d$ - orbital
- ✓High dissociation energy
- CHigh electronegativity
- DNone
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
High dissociation energy
b
As the dissociation energy of $N _2$ is very high, it does not react with any molecule.
As the dissociation energy of $N _2$ is very high, it does not react with any molecule.
So, inertness of $N _2$ is due to high dissociation energy of $N _2$.
