Which consequence results when nitrogen's limited d-orbital hybridization?

A)Nitrogen cannot form expansive pi-systems
B)Nitrogen has exceptional catalytic capabilities
C)Nitrogen exhibits increased water solubility
D)Nitrogen experiences augmented radical stability

💡 Explanation

Nitrogen's lack of d-orbitals constraints its ability to hybridize and form extensive pi-systems. Therefore, it limits nitrogen creating compounds with extensive pi-conjugation, because nitrogen only can accommodate 4 sigma bonds, rather than having possible expanded valence.
