Question

On strongly heating $AgN{O}_3$, the gases evolved are:

• A. $N_{2}O$ and $NO$
• B. $N{O}_2$ and $O_2$
• C. $NO$ and $O_2$
• D. $N{O}_2$ and $NO$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $N{O}_2$ and $O_2$

On strong heating, $AgN{O}_3$ gives oxygen and nitrogen dioxide.
$2AgN{O}_3\left(s\right)\stackrel{\Delta }{\to }2Ag\left(s\right)+O_2\left(g\right)+2N{O}_2\left(g\right)$
