Which risk increases when high-energy electrons occupy antibonding orbitals in a nitrogen laser?

💡 Explanation

Occupying antibonding orbitals weakens the N≡N bond via antibonding lessening the bond order; therefore, nitrogen molecules dissociate because the weakened bond favors decomposition rather than radiative decay, leading to gain medium degradation.
