Amiraneli [1.4K]

The compound nitrogen have most positive oxidation state is NO₂. The correct option is b.

<h3>What is oxidation state?</h3>

The total number of electrons gained or lost by an atom in order to form a chemical bond with another atom.

The charge on an ion is equal to the sum of the oxidation states of all the atoms in the ion. A substance's more electronegative elements are given a negative oxidation state.

A positive oxidation state is assigned to the less electronegative element.

Thus, the correct option is b, NO₂.

Entropy measures _____. 1 point<br> A. Energy<br> B. Heat Transferred<br> C. Disorder<br> D. Force
dlinn [17]

Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The degree of randomness or disorder is known as entropy. This means that more randomly or rapidly the molecules of a substance are moving in a container or in the Universe more will be its entropy.

For example, gases move more rapidly that solids or liquids and hence gases have high entropy.

Therefore, we can conclude that entropy measures disorder.
