Solution

The correct option is A True
The given statement is True.

Tetrasulphur tetranitride S4N4 is kinetically stable but endothermic with respect to its elements.
(ΔHf=460±8kJ/mol). It is due to more stability of elementary sulphur and great bond strength of N2 rather than to any inherent weakness in the SN bonds.
