Question:

The correct order of the oxidation states of nitrogen in NO, N₂O, NO₂, and N₂O₃ is:

NO₂<N₂O₃<NO<N₂O

N₂O<NO<N₂O₃<NO₂

NO₂<NO<N₂O₃<N₂O

N₂O<N₂O₃<NO<NO₂

Solution:

Correct option is D. N₂O<NO<N₂O₃<NO₂
The correct order of oxidation state of nitrogen in oxides of nitrogen is as follows:
N₂O<NO<N₂O₃<NO₂
+1< +2< +3< +4
