Q. The following two reactions ${HNO}_{3}$ with $Zn$ are given as (equations are not balanced) $Zn + conc.{HNO}_{3} \longrightarrow Zn\left( {NO}_{3} \right)_{2} + \boxed{X} + H_{2}O(A)$ $Zn + dil\ .{HNO}_{3} \longrightarrow Zn\left( {NO}_{3} \right)_{2} + \boxed{Y} + H_{2}O(B)$ In reactions $A$ and $B$, the compounds $X$ and $Y\$respectively, are
A) ${NO}_{2}\ and\ NO$
B) ${NO}_{2}and\ {NO}_{2}$
C) $NO\ and\ {NO}_{2}$
D) ${NO}_{2}\ and\ {NH}_{4}{NO}_{3}$
Explanation
The correct answer is Option D: ${NO}_{2}\ and\ {NH}_{4}{NO}_{3}$.
