Which of the following statement is true regarding the following balanced half-reaction? `CN^(-) rarr CNO^(-)`A. Carbon is losing two electrons per atomB. Oxidation number of carbon increase from `+1 " to " +3`C. Oxidation number of nitrogen remains constantD. Both (a) and (c) |

Answer» Correct Answer - D In the given redox reaction, `C^(-) -= N rarr O^(-) - C -= N` Oxidation number of nitrogen is remaining unchanged at `-3`. Oxidation number of carbon is increasing from `+2 " to " +4`. Hence (a) and (c) are the only correct response. therefore, option (d) is correct. |
