2) N₂O₅
3) NO₂
4) NO

Answer:
- N₂O₃
2x + 3(-2) = 0
x = +3
- N₂O₅
2x + 5(-2) = 0
x = +5
- NO₂
x + 2(-2) = 0
x = 4
- NO
x + (-2) = 0
x = 2
Explanation:
- The General Oxidation State or You Can Say Stable Oxidation state of Oxygen is (-2)
- Letting the oxidation state of Nitrogen as x and equating it to 0 (because the net charge on the Molecule is zero if it is something like NO- then we would rather equate it to -1).
