Well, isn't that a happy little question! NO2 is a covalent molecule because it is made up of nonmetals (nitrogen and oxygen) sharing electrons. Remember, in the world of chemistry, elements can come together in different ways to create beautiful compounds like this one. Just like how different colors blend on my palette to create a masterpiece!

Is NO2- a polar or nonpolar covalent bond or ionic?

NO2- has a polar covalent bond due to the difference in electronegativity between nitrogen and oxygen. This creates an unequal sharing of electrons, resulting in a polar molecule.

Is N2O5 ionic or covalent?

There is no known species as N2O6. NO3 is a transient planar molecule, with an unpaired electron. N2O5 in the solid is NO2+ NO3- in the vapour and solution it is molecular, probably O2-N-O-NO2. N2O4 is a planar molecule O2N-NO2
