Solution

The correct answer is 1.
The resonance structures show that the electrons are delocalized within the molecule and through this process, the molecule gains extra stability. $(N_{3}^{-})$ Azides are energy-rich molecules . The extra electron that created the negative charge on either terminal nitrogen can be delocalized by resonance.
