Dear Student,
Bond separation vitality of N2 is higher than O2, on the grounds that nitrogen atom has triple covalent bond and is bond remove is shorter than oxygen particle. While, oxygen particle contains twofold covalent bond and it is weaker bond than N2. Resultantly, N2 has more noteworthy bond separation vitality than O2.
