$NO + \frac{1}{2} O_{2} \to NO_{2}$

During the reaction, the property which remains unchanged is :-

Options:

Answer:

Solution:

The reaction is:

$NO + \frac{1}{2} O_{2} \to N O_{2}$

NO is paramagnetic due to an odd number of electrons (11 valence electrons). NO₂ is also paramagnetic due to an odd number of electrons (17 valence electrons). Therefore, the paramagnetic nature remains unchanged. Shape and entropy change.
