The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the reaction of \( N_2O_4 + H_2O \) producing \( HNO_3 + HNO_2 \), we will analyze the products formed and determine their classification as oxyacids. ### Step 1: Identify the Reactants and Products We start with the reactants: - \( N_2O_4 \) (dinitrogen tetroxide) - \( H_2O \) (water) The products of the reaction are: - \( HNO_3 \) (nitric acid) - \( HNO_2 \) (nitrous acid) ### Step 2: Determine the Nature of the Products Next, we need to classify the products: - **Oxyacid Definition**: An oxyacid is an acid that contains oxygen, hydrogen, and another element (in this case, nitrogen). Both \( HNO_3 \) and \( HNO_2 \) contain: - Oxygen (O) - Hydrogen (H) - Nitrogen (N) This means both products are indeed oxyacids. ### Step 3: Analyze the Oxidation States of Nitrogen Now, we will look at the oxidation states of nitrogen in the products: - In \( HNO_3 \), the oxidation state of nitrogen is +5. - In \( HNO_2 \), the oxidation state of nitrogen is +3. ### Step 4: Classify the Oxyacids Based on the oxidation states: - \( HNO_3 \) (with nitrogen at +5) is known as nitric acid, which is the higher oxidation state oxyacid. - \( HNO_2 \) (with nitrogen at +3) is known as nitrous acid, which is the lower oxidation state oxyacid. ### Conclusion Since we have two products: - One with a higher oxidation state (nitric acid) and one with a lower oxidation state (nitrous acid), we conclude that the reaction produces two oxyacids. Thus, the correct classification is that the products are two oxyacids, one with the suffix "-ic" (HNO3) and the other with the suffix "-ous" (HNO2). ### Final Answer The answer is: **C** - The products are two oxyacids, one with the "-ic" suffix and the other with the "-ous" suffix. ---
