solution :-
The presence of N₂ is the hint of its instability. N₂ is a dinitrogen molecule and is an unstable compound because nitrogen a triple bond with itself.
for eg:- nitric oxide is produced by burning ammonia (NH3), while in the laboratory it can be produced by the reduction of dilute nitric acid (HNO3) with, for example, copper (Cu).
3Cu + 8HNO3 2NO + 3Cu(NO3)2 + 4H2O
