Reason (R):Nitrogen exists as a diatomic molecule (N2)with a triple bond.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Both A\mathrm{A} and R\mathrm{R} are correct; R\mathrm{R} is not the correct explanation of A.
Option B is correct because both the assertion and the reason are correct, but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion. Nitrogen's maximum covalency is 4, and it exists as a diatomic molecule with a triple bond, but these are independent facts.
