MCQ
The oxidation state of nitrogen in ${N_3}H$ is
  • A
    $ + \frac{1}{3}$
  • B
    $+3$
  • C
    $ - 1$
  • $ - \frac{1}{3}$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$ - \frac{1}{3}$
(d)In hydrazoic acid $({N_3}H)$ nitrogen shows $ - \frac{1}{3}$ oxidation state.

$\mathop {{N_3}H}\limits^{ * \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,} $

$3x + 1 = 0$, $3x = - 1$, $x = - \frac{1}{3}$.
