MCQ
Nitrogen show different oxidation states in the range
- A$0$ to $+5$
- ✓$-3$ to $+ 5$
- C$-5$ to $+ 3$
- D$-3$ to $+ 3$
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
$-3$ to $+ 5$
b
Since nitrogen atom have $5$ electrons in its outermost shell, so higher electronegative elements can extend its oxidation state up to $+5$, while in case of taking electrons it cannot go beyond $8$ electrons. So at most it can accept $3$ electrons.
