Correct answer
AA-B has the stiffest bond

Step-by-step explanation

From the given graph, potential energy of A-B molecule is minimum.

Thus A-B bond is most stable as it requires more energy to dissociate and have strongest bond amongst these.

B = Most electronegative

D = Least electronegative

A - B = Shortest bond length

A - B = Largest bond enthalpy
