Nitrogen shows different oxidation states in the range
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
–3 to +5
Option B (–3 to +5) is correct because nitrogen can exhibit oxidation states ranging from -3 (e.g., in NH3) to +5 (e.g., in N2O5).

A reagent, which can decrease the oxidation number of an element, is called
Consider the following decomposition reaction
In the above reaction, Assertion (A): acts as oxidizing agent.
Reason (R): Oxidation no. of nitrogen is +5, no increase in oxidation no. beyond +5 can occur. The oxidation no. of can only decrease. Assertion :- Bromide ion is serving as a reducing agent in the reaction.
Reason :- Oxidation number of increases from to A substance, that by its sharp colour change indicates the completion of reaction is known as :
