A 2.5 mol of hydrazine `N_(2)H_(4)` loses 25 mole of electrons is being converted to a new compound X. Assuming that all of the nitrogen appears in the new compound, what is the oxidation state of nitrogen in compound X ?

A

`-1`

B

`-3`

C

`+3`

D

`+5`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
c
Total O.N of 2 nitrogen atoms in `N_(2)H_(4)` is -4 since it loses 10 moles of electrons therefore the total O.N of two N atoms in X increases by 10 i.e the total O.N fo two N atoms in X=-4+10 =+6
`therefore` O.N of each N in `X=6//2=3`
