  2. BNO2{NO}_{2}
  3. CN2O5{N}_{2}{O}_{5}
  4. DNONO

Correct answer

C. N2O5{N}_{2}{O}_{5}

Step-by-step solution

Nitrogen Pentaoxide (N2O5)\left({N}_{2}{O}_{5}\right) is an oxide of Nitrogen which is not a common Pollutant. Dinitrogen pentoxide is an unstable and dangerous oxidiser, which contains only nitrogen and oxygen. It is formed when oxygen and nitrogen react.
