$\underbrace {2NO + {O_2}}_{(X)} \rightleftharpoons \underbrace {2N{O_2}}_{(Y)}\underset{{heat}}{\overset{{cold}}{\longleftrightarrow}}\underbrace {{N_2}{O_4}}_{(Z)}$

$X, Y$ and $Z$ can be described as

  • $X \to $ Colourless, $Y \to $ Brown, paramagnetic, $Z \to $ Colourless, diamagnetic
  • B
    $X \to $ Brown, $Y \to $ Colourless, diamagnetic, $Z \to $ Brown, paramagnetic
  • C
    $X \to $ Colourless, $Y \to $ Colourless, paramagnetic, $Z \to $ Brown, diamagnetic
  • D
    $X \to $ Brown, $Y \to $ Brown, paramagnetic, $Z \to $ Brown, diamagnetic

Answer

Correct option: A.
$X \to $ Colourless, $Y \to $ Brown, paramagnetic, $Z \to $ Colourless, diamagnetic
