Answer:
2H⁺ + NO₃⁻ + 1e⁻ → NO₂ + H₂O
Explanation:
NO₃⁻ → NO₂
In left side, Nitrogen acts with +5 by oxidation number
In right side, the oxidation number is +4
This is a reduction reaction, because the oxidation number has decreased. So the N has gained electrons.
NO₃⁻ + 1e⁻ → NO₂
In acidic medium, we have to add water, where there are less oxygens to ballance the amount. We have 2 O in left side, and 3 O in right side, so we have to add 1 H₂O on left side.
NO₃⁻ + 1e⁻ → NO₂ + H₂O
Now that oxygens are ballanced, we have to ballance the hydrogens by adding protons in the opposite side
2H⁺ + NO₃⁻ + 1e⁻ → NO₂ + H₂O

It is false because an endothermic reaction will also start when energy is received from the environment when there is no solution involved
