because they are satisfied with there electron sharing

markiv2003: yes
markiv2003: yes*
eurusholmes003: Explain
markiv2003: N has a valency of 1 and O also has a valency of 1
markiv2003: so they share 1 electron each other
eurusholmes003: O has a valency of 2 and N has a valency of 3
markiv2003: sorry
markiv2003: so they share their electrons
markiv2003: so they become neutral
eurusholmes003: Not clear

because NO is neither acidic nor basic means it doesn't react with acids or base. so it is a neutral compound.
here is your answer ☺️

eurusholmes003: But why is it neither acidic nor basic? Give a better explanation
saketdas10pc29qm: because it pH Value is neither more than 7 or less than 7. it lies completely on 7 so it is neural.
markiv2003: they have the ability to decompose them selve from NO3 to NO2,N2O,NO
