← ScienceWhich consequence results when nitrogen gas lacks orbital hybridization?
A)Weaker van der Waals forces
B)Increased rate of chain reactions
C)Decreased bond dissociation energy
D)Nitrogen molecule instability increases✓
💡 Explanation
Without orbital hybridization, the electron arrangement would resist forming stable bonds; therefore, nitrogen molecule stability decreases, because bonding depends on forming hybrid orbitals, rather than any changes in intermolecular forces caused by polarity.
