The correct Answer is:
To determine which nitrogen oxides contain N-N bonds, we will analyze the structures of each relevant nitrogen oxide. ### Step 1: Analyze Dinitrogen Oxide (N2O) - The molecular formula is N2O. - The structure of N2O consists of two nitrogen atoms bonded together (N-N) and one oxygen atom. - Therefore, N2O contains an N-N bond. ### Step 2: Analyze Dinitrogen Trioxide (N2O3) - The molecular formula is N2O3. - The structure of N2O3 also consists of two nitrogen atoms bonded together (N-N) and three oxygen atoms. - Therefore, N2O3 contains an N-N bond. ### Step 3: Analyze Dinitrogen Tetroxide (N2O4) - The molecular formula is N2O4. - The structure of N2O4 includes two nitrogen atoms bonded together (N-N) and four oxygen atoms. - Therefore, N2O4 contains an N-N bond. ### Step 4: Analyze Dinitrogen Pentoxide (N2O5) - The molecular formula is N2O5. - The structure of N2O5 does not have an N-N bond; instead, it consists of nitrogen atoms bonded to oxygen atoms without forming a bond between the two nitrogen atoms. - Therefore, N2O5 does not contain an N-N bond. ### Conclusion The nitrogen oxides that contain N-N bonds are: - Dinitrogen oxide (N2O) - Dinitrogen trioxide (N2O3) - Dinitrogen tetroxide (N2O4) Thus, the correct answer is A (N2O), B (N2O3), and C (N2O4). ---

Nitrogen forms the largest number of oxides as it is capable of forming stable multiple bonds with oxygen. They range of N_(2)O (O.S of nitrogen +1) through NO, N_(2)O_(3),NO_(2),N_(2)O_(4) "to" N_(2)O_(5) (O.S of nitrogen +5). Following points are improtant regarding the study of oxides of nitrogen. (a) All oxides of nitrogen expect N_(2)O_(5) are endothermic as a large amount of energy is required to dissociate the stable molecule of oxygen and nitrogen. (b) The small electronegativity difference between oxygen and nitrogen make N-O bond easily breakle to give oxygen and hence oxides of nitrogen are said to be better oxidising agents. (c) Expect N_(2)O_(5) , all are gases at ordinary temperature. N_(2)O_(3) is stable only at lower temperature (253K). (d) Expect N_(2)O and NO which are neutal oxides, all are acidic oxides which dissolve in water forming coresponding oxy acids. (e) They are also good example for illustrating the concept of resonance. The gas which is acidic in nature is :
