Answer:
Nitrogen is chemically less reactive. This is because of the high stability of its molecule.N2. In]N 2, the two nitrogen atoms form a triple bond. This triple bond has very high bond strength, which is very difficult to break. It is because of nitrogen’s small size that it isable to form p\pi−p\pipπ−pπ bonds with itself. This property is not exhibited by atoms such as phosphorus. Thus, phosphorus is more reactive than nitrogen.
