A. its atoms has a stable electronic configuration
B. it has low atomic radius
C. its electronegativity is fairly high
D. dissociation energy of its molecule is fairly high.

D. dissociation energy of its molecule is fairly high.
Correct Answer – D
`N_(2)` molecule contains triple bond between N atoms, having very high dissociation energy `(946 kJ mol^(-1))` due to which it is relatively inactive.
