The correct Answer is:
To determine which nitrogen oxides contain an N-O-N bond, we will analyze the structures of various nitrogen oxides step by step. ### Step 1: Identify the nitrogen oxides The nitrogen oxides we will consider are: 1. N2O (Dinitrogen oxide) 2. N2O3 (Dinitrogen trioxide) 3. N2O4 (Dinitrogen tetroxide) 4. N2O5 (Dinitrogen pentoxide) ### Step 2: Analyze the structure of N2O - The structure of N2O can be represented as: ``` N≡N^+ - O^- ``` - In this structure, there is no N-O-N bond present. Therefore, N2O does not contain an N-O-N bond. ### Step 3: Analyze the structure of N2O3 - The structure of N2O3 can be represented as: ``` O=N - N^+ - O^- ``` - This structure also does not contain an N-O-N bond. Thus, N2O3 does not have an N-O-N bond. ### Step 4: Analyze the structure of N2O4 - The structure of N2O4 can be represented as: ``` O=N - N=O ``` - Again, this structure does not show an N-O-N bond. Therefore, N2O4 does not contain an N-O-N bond. ### Step 5: Analyze the structure of N2O5 - The structure of N2O5 can be represented as: ``` O=N - O - N=O ``` - In this structure, we can see that there is indeed an N-O-N bond present. Therefore, N2O5 contains an N-O-N bond. ### Conclusion The nitrogen oxide that contains an N-O-N bond is **N2O5**. ---

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 :
