Question

Choose the correct statement(s) regarding Dinitrogen $\left(N_2\right)$ ?

• A. It is a toxic gas.
• B. It is diamagnetic in nature.
• C. It is sparingly soluble in water.
• D. It is colourless and odourless.

Answer 1

Answer: (B), (C), (D)

It is colourless and odourless.

Nitrogen is a colourless, odourless and non-toxic gas which is sparingly soluble in water.
It is diamagnetic in nature.
Nitrogen undergoes condensation to form a colourless liquid. This, on solidification results in the formation of snow like mass. Thus options (a),(c) and (d) are correct.
