Question

The correct order of acidic strength of oxides of nitrogen is

Options

A.NO < NO2 < N2O < N2O3 < N2O5
B.N2O < NO < N2O3 < N2O4 < N2O5
C.NO < N2O < N2O3 < N2O5 < N2O4
D.NO < N2O < N2O5 < N2O3 < N2O4

Solution

Sol. The acidic nature increases while oxidising nature decreases with increase of oxidation state of nitrogen.

N2​O < NO < N2​O3 ​< N2​O4 ​< N2​O5​

+1       +2      +3           +4        +5
