Chemistry Question on Group 15 Elements

The correct order of the oxidation states of nitrogen in NO,N2O,NO2NO, N_2O, NO_2 and N2O3N_2 O_3 is :

A

NO2<N2O3<NO<N2ONO_2 < N_2O_3 < NO < N_2O

B

NO2<NO<N2O3<N2ONO_2 < NO < N_2O_3 < N_2O

C

N2O<N2O3<NO<NO2N_2O < N_2 O_3 < NO < NO_2

D

N2O<NO<N2O3<NO2N_2O < NO < N_2 O_3 < NO_2

Answer

N2O<NO<N2O3<NO2N_2O < NO < N_2 O_3 < NO_2

Explanation

Solution

Correct order of oxidation state of nitrogen in
oxides of nitrogen is following
N2O+1<NO+2<N2O3+3<NO2+4_{N_2 O}^{+1} < _{N O}^{+2} < _{N_2 O_3}^{+3} < _{NO_2}^{+4}
