The conversion of

\mathbf{Pb}{\mathbf{O}_\mathbf{2}}\,\,to\,\mathbf{Pb}{\left( {\mathbf{N}{\mathbf{O}_\mathbf{3}}} \right)_\mathbf{2}}

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

Reduction

Reduction. Option B is correct because the oxidation number of Pb decreases from +4 in

\mathbf{Pb}{\mathbf{O}_\mathbf{2}}

to +2 in

\mathbf{Pb}{\left( {\mathbf{N}{\mathbf{O}_\mathbf{3}}} \right)_\mathbf{2}}
