It is because of the small size and high electronegativity of nitrogen.
<span>Nitrogen has very small size as compared to the halogens, which have much larger sizes. Due to this, they can not remain bonded to the nitrogen atom and hence are highly unstable. </span>
The correct option is C.
An atom can be either in the ground state or in an excited state. An atom is said to be in the ground state, if the total energy of its electron can not be lowered by moving one or more electrons into different orbitals. At the ground state, the electrons in the atom have the lowest energy possible and they are stable. On the other hand, an atom is said to be in an excited state, if the energy of its electrons can be lowered by transferring one or more electrons into different orbitals. An atom in an excited state has more energy and is less stable.
Isotope 1: 89.905 * 51.45 = 4625.61225 / 100 = 46.2561225
Isotope 2: 90.906 * 11.22 = 1019.96532 / 100 = 10.1996532
Isotope 3: 91.905 * 17.15 = 1576.17175 / 100 = 15.7617075
Isotope 4: 93.906 * 17.38 = 1632.08628 / 100 = 16.3208628
Isotope 5: 95.908 * 2.08 = 268.5424 / 100 = 2.685424
46.2561225 + 10.1996532 + 15.7617075 + 16.3208628 + 2.685424 = 91.22377
actual mass Zr = about 91.22
It is false :D I am 95% sure
