Question

The correct order of N-compounds in its decreasing order of oxidation states is ______.

पर्याय

• HNO₃, NH₄Cl, NO, N₂

• HNO₃, NO, NH₄Cl, N₂

• HNO₃, NO, N₂, NH₄Cl

• NH₄Cl, N₂, NO, HNO₃

Answer 1

The correct order of N-compounds in its decreasing order of oxidation states is ______.

Explanation:

In HNO₃, nitrogen has the highest oxidation state of +5. In NO, it is +2; in NH₄Cl, nitrogen has an oxidation state of −3; and in N₂, nitrogen has an oxidation state of 0. Hence, the order of oxidation states decreases as HNO₃ > NO > NH₄Cl > N₂.
