N(2) is less reactive than CN^(-) due to...

`N_(2)` is less reactive than `CN^(-)` due to

A

Presence of more electrons in orbitals

B

Absence of dipole moment

C

Difference in spin quantum no

D

The `BF_3` molecule must be planar triangular

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

B

Due to dipole moment in `CN^(-)` and the availability of electron cloud in nitrogen atom it has more reactivity.
