JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2025 - 4th April Morning Shift - No. 13)
Given below are two statements:
Statement I: Nitrogen forms oxides with +1 to +5 oxidation states due to the formation of $\mathrm{p} \pi-\mathrm{p} \pi$ bond with oxygen.
Statement II: Nitrogen does not form halides with +5 oxidation state due to the absence of d-orbital in it.
In the light of given statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.
Both Statement I and Statement II are true
Statement I is true but Statement II is false
Statement I is false but Statement II are true
Both Statement I and Statement II are False
Explanation
In oxide of nitrogen it can achieve +5 oxidation state because it can form $\mathrm{p} \pi-\mathrm{p} \pi$ bond with oxygen e.g. $\mathrm{N}_2 \mathrm{O}_5$

Nitrogen cannot form halide in +5 oxidation state because it does not contain d-orbital.
e.g. $\quad \mathrm{NX}_5$ does not exist
X = halide
