. The correct order of N-compounds in its
decreasing order of oxidation states is
HNO3. NH4CI, NO, N2
HNO3, NO, NH4C1, N2
HNO3, NO, N2, NH4C1
NH4C1, N2, NO, HNO3
As we learnt that
Oxidation number and oxidation state -
A term that is often used interchangeably with the oxidation number is the oxidation state. This implies oxidation number denote the oxidation state of an element.
