JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2019 - 9th April Morning Slot - No. 17)
The correct order of the oxidation states of
nitrogen in NO, N2O, NO2 and N2O3 is :
NO2 < NO < N2O3 < N2O
NO2 < N2O3 < NO < N2O
N2O < NO < N2O3 < NO2
N2O < N2O3 < NO < NO2
Explanation
In N2O oxidation states of
nitrogen = +1
In NO oxidation states of nitrogen = +2
In N2O3 oxidation states of nitrogen = +3
In NO2 oxidation states of nitrogen = +4
In NO oxidation states of nitrogen = +2
In N2O3 oxidation states of nitrogen = +3
In NO2 oxidation states of nitrogen = +4
