Detailed Solution

Left to right in a period  Atomic radius decreases
size of C > N > O
CC > NN > OO ..Bond length
Generally
Bond  enthalpy  1Bond  length
  Expected trend of Bond enthalpy
          C–C < N–N < O–O
But both ‘N’ and ‘O’ contain lone pairs.  Due to the repulsions between lone pairs of adjacent atoms in N–N and O–O their bond enthalpies are very low.
Experimental bond enthalpy
     C–C > N–N > O–O
