Q7 / 90 · JEE Main 2022 (26 Jun Shift 2) · Chemistry

The oxide which contains an odd electron at the nitrogen atom is

A
$N_{2} O_{}$
Correct answer
B
${NO}_{2}$
C
$N_{2} O_{3}$
D
$N_{2} O_{5}$

Solution

Structures of the given oxides of nitrogen are as follows:

As we can see only ${NO}_{2}$ is having an odd electron on the nitrogen atom.It is the correct answer.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
