When the same species undergoes both oxidation and reduction in a single redox reaction, this is referred to as a disproportionation. Therefore, divide it into two equal reactions.

NO2→NO^−3

NO2→NO

and do the usual changes

First, balance the two half reactions:

3. NO2 +H2O →NO^−3 + 2 H^+ + e−

4. NO2 +2 H^+ + 2e− → NO + H2O

Now multiply one or both half-reactions to ensure that each has the same number of electrons. Here, Eqn (3) x 2 results in each half-reaction having two electrons:

5. 2 NO2 + 2 H2O → 2 NO^−3 + 4H^+ + 2e−

Now add Eqn 4 and 5 (the electrons now cancel each other):

3NO2 + 2H^+ + 2H2O → NO + 2 NO−3 + H2O + 4H+

and cancel terms that’s common to both sides:

3NO2 + H2O → NO + 2NO^−3 + 2H+

This is the net ionic equation describing the oxidation of NO2 to NO3 in basic solution.

Why the bond in water molecule os polar covalent bond, while than in chlorine molecule is pure covalent bond? Give reason? ​
erastovalidia [21]

Explanation:

The unequal sharing of electrons between the atoms and the unsymmetrical shape of the molecule means that a water molecule has two poles - a positive charge on the hydrogen pole (side) and a negative charge on the oxygen pole (side). We say that the water molecule is electrically polar.
