Nitrogen oxide may refer to a binary compound of oxygen and nitrogen, or a mixture of such compounds:
Charge-neutral
Nitric oxide (NO), nitrogen(II) oxide, or nitrogen monoxide
Nitrogen dioxide (NO2), nitrogen(IV) oxide
Nitrogen trioxide (NO3), or nitrate radical
Nitrous oxide (N2O), nitrogen(0,II) oxide
Dinitrogen dioxide (N2O2), nitrogen(II) oxide dimer
Dinitrogen trioxide (N2O3), nitrogen(II,IV) oxide
Dinitrogen tetroxide (N2O4), nitrogen(IV) oxide dimer
Dinitrogen pentoxide (N2O5), nitrogen(V) oxide, or nitronium nitrate [NO2]+[NO3]−
Nitrosyl azide (N4O), nitrogen(−I,0,I,II) oxide
Nitryl azide (N4O2)
Oxatetrazole (N4O)
Trinitramide (N(NO2)3 or N4O6), nitrogen(0,IV) oxide
Anions
Cations
Nitrosonium (N≡O+ or [NO]+)
Nitronium (O=N+=O or [NO2]+)
Atmospheric sciences
In atmospheric chemistry:
NOx (or NOx) refers to the sum of NO and NO2.
NOy (or NOy) refers to the sum of NOx and all oxidized atmospheric odd-nitrogen species (e.g. the sum of NOx, HNO3, HNO2, etc.)
NOz (or NOz) = NOy − NOx
Mixed Oxides of Nitrogen ("MON"): solutions of nitric oxide in dinitrogen tetroxide/nitrogen dioxide.
Stability
Due to relatively weak N–O bonding, all nitrogen oxides are unstable with respect to N2 and O2, which is the principle behind the catalytic converter, and prevents the oxygen and nitrogen in the atmosphere from combusting.
