Question

oxidation state of nitrogen is fractional in the following A) NH2OH B) NH3 C) N3H D) N2H4 with explanation​

Answer 1

Answer:

N3H

Explanation:

N3H structure having 3 Nitrogen atoms

, two of them have oxidation state 0 and one have oxidation state +1.

So, O.S. of N in this compound will be 0+0+1/3 =1/3.

Answer 2

The correct answer is option (C) N₃H.

Explanation:

• Oxidation state of nitrogen is fractional in N₃H.
• N₃H structure having 3 Nitrogen atoms, two of them have oxidation state 0 and one have oxidation state +1.
• So, O.S. of N in this compound will be 0+0+1/3 =1/3.
• Hence, the correct answer is option C i.e N₃H.
