On heating, lead (II) nitrate gives a brown gas (A). The gas (A) on cooling changes to a colourless solid/liquid (B). (B) on heating with NO changes to a blue solid (C). The oxidation number of nitrogen in solid (C) is:
On heating, lead (II) nitrate gives a brown gas (A). The gas (A) on cooling changes to a colourless solid/liquid (B). (B) on heating with NO changes to a blue solid (C). The oxidation number of nitrogen in solid (C) is:
2 Pb (NO? )? → 2PbO + 2NO? + O?
2NO? → N? O? colourless
N? O? + 2NO → 2 N? O?
Oxidation state in N? O? is +3
