Which of the following bonds has highest bond enthalpy?

  1. A \(\mathrm{N}-\mathrm{H}\) in \(\mathrm{NH}_3\)
  2. B \(\mathrm{O}=\mathrm{O}\) in \(\mathrm{O}_2\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{C}-\mathrm{H}\) in \(\mathrm{CH}_4\)
  4. D \(\mathrm{N} \equiv \mathrm{N}\) in \(\mathrm{N}_2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\mathrm{N} \equiv \mathrm{N}\) in \(\mathrm{N}_2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

More the number of bonds between atoms more will be the bond energy.
\(\mathrm{N}_2\) has triple bond between \(\mathrm{N}\) atoms and has highest bond enthalpy.
