In the Ramsay - Rayleigh's second method, `2NO_2 + 2NaOH to NaNO_2 + X + H_2O` . Where 'X' is the nitrogen compound, then Oxidation state of nitrogen in 'X' is ___________

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
5
`2NO_2 + 2NaOH to Na^(+3) NO_2 + Na^(+5)NO_3 + H_2O. NO_3^(-1) to x - 6 = -1 , x = -1 + 6 = + 5`
