At room temperature, disproportionation of an aqueous solution of in situ generated nitrous acid (HNO2) gives the species

  1. H3O+, NO3- and NO
  2. H3O+, NO3- and NO2
  3. H3O+, NO- and NO2
  4. H3O+, NO3- and N2O

Answer

(1) H3O+, NO3- and NO

Solution

In HNO2, N is in +3 state; it disproportionates to +5 (NO3-) and +2 (NO).

3HNO2 HNO3 + 2NO + H2O

In water: 3HNO2 H3O+ + NO3- + 2NO

Electron balance: 1 N gains +2 (3→5), 2 N lose 1 each (3→2).

Answer: (A)
