The correct option is
C 4Zn+10HNO3→4Zn(NO3)2+N2O+5H2OThe unbalanced redox equation is as follows:
Zn+HNO3→4Zn(NO3)2+N2O+H2O
Balance all atoms other than H and O.
4Zn+10HNO3→4Zn(NO3)2+N2O+H2O
The oxidation number of Zn changes from 0 to +2. The change in the oxidation number of one Zn atom is +2. For 4 Zn atoms, the total change in the oxidation number is 8.
The oxidation number of N changes from +5 to +1. The change in the oxidation number of one N atom is 4. For 2 N atoms, the total change in the oxidation number is 8.
The increase in the oxidation number is balanced with a decrease in the oxidation number O atoms are balanced adding 4 water molecules on RHS.
4Zn+10HNO3→4Zn(NO3)2+N2O+5H2O
Hydrogen atoms are balanced.
This is the balanced chemical equation.
