p-Block (15–18) · Anomalous behaviour of nitrogen

Correct statements from the following are :

(A)Nitrogen in oxidation states from $+1$ to $+4$ disproportionates in acid medium.
(B)Nitrogen has the ability to form d $\pi$ -p $\pi$ multiple bonds with itself and other elements with small size and high electronegativity.
(C)N-N single bond is stronger than P-P single bond.
(D)Nitrogen has highest density in its group due to small size.
(E)The maximum covalency of nitrogen is four since it has only four valence orbitals for bonding.
