A should be the answer because the more you test an experiment the more data you have to rely on changing the experiment would cause you to have different outcomes making the results different and unreliable so B, C, and D is not going to be the answer Hope this helps
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.
