In which of the following pairs, there is greatest difference in the oxidation number of the underlined elements ?

A

`NO_(2)`and `N_(2)O_(4)`

B

`P_(2)O_(5)` and `P_(4)O_(10)`

C

`N_(2)O` and NO

D

`SO_(2)` and `SO_(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
O.N. of N is `NO_(2)` and `N_(2)O_(4)` is `+4`
`:.` Difference is zero.
O.N. of P in `P_(2)O_(5)` and `P_(2)O_(10)` is `+5`
`:.` Difference is zero.
O.N. of N in `N_(2)O` is `+1` and in NO is `+2`. The difference is 1.
O.N. of S in `SO_(2)` and `SO_(3)` is `+6`. The difference is `+2`.
