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.

<span>a mole of gold atoms weighs more than a mole of silver atoms, since gold's atomic mass is 197grams per mole</span>
A physical change is something that could be reverted back to its original form, while a chemical change is something that could not be reverted back when changed.
ex of physical change: ice - can be melted and then freeze to solid again
ex of chemical change: change of color, like adding food coloring in something and you cannot take out the color again
I will rewrite this question so the options are presented more clearly:
Rank in increasing polarity the carbon-nitrogen single, double and triple bonds.
a) not enough information to compare
b) triple < double < single
c) all have the same polarity
d) single < double < triple
The answer we are looking for is b) triple < double < single.
We determine bond polarity by comparing the electronegativities of the two atoms involved in the bond, in this case carbon-nitrogen. Nitrogen is more electronegative than carbon, with electronegativities of 3.04 and 2.55, respectively. You may expect that the electronegativities of the atoms remains the same in each bond, but this is not the case.
In the case of a C-N single bond, the carbon atom is sp³ hybridized. In a C=N double bond, the carbon is sp² hybridized. The more s-character an atom has leads to an increase in the electronegativity of the atom since s-orbitals hold the electrons much tighter. By increasing the s-character of the carbon atom from sp³ to sp², we are increasing the electronegativity which leads to a decrease in the difference in electronegativities between carbon and nitrogen. Therefore, a C-N single bond is more polar than a C=N double bond. This trend continues with a C≡N as the carbon now is sp hybridized with even more s-character and becomes more electronegative still, thus decreasing the polarity further.
Answer: 8 Moles of Oxygen
Explanation: The formula shows that there are (exactly) 4 oxygen atoms in each mole or formula unit. Therefore 4 * 2.00 = 8.
