Solution
The correct option is BNA−NB Like charges repel each other and unlike charges attract each other.
When two atoms come together the negatively charged electrons of both atoms repel each other and positively charged nuclei of both atoms repel each other.
The repulsion between electrons of atoms A and B is represented as eA−eB
The repulsion between electrons of atoms A and B is represented as NA−NB.
