Nitrogen is inert because ofA. Low atomic sizeB. Pressence in gaseous stateC. More electronegativityD. Presence of triple bond

Answer» Correct Answer - D
Nitrogen is inert because its `p`-subshell is half-filled due to it has maximum exchange energy. Thus it is exists in stable form as like inert gas and it form triple bond `(N-=N).N_(2)` molecules is very stable and its dissociation energy is `225 k cal//mol`.
