Molecularity -

The number of reacting species (atoms, ions, or molecules) taking part in an elementary reaction that must collide simultaneously in order to bring about a chemical reaction is Molecularity.

Description:

NH_{4}NO_{2}\rightarrow N_{2}+2H_{2}O (unimolecular)

H_{2}+I_{2}\rightarrow 2HI (bimolecular)

2NO+O_{2}\rightarrow 2NO_{2} (trimolecular)

Molecularity is the theoretical concept. It cannot be zero/non-integer

 Hence, the answer is (2).
