Detailed Solution

N2O is a polar molecule that has a linear shape.

There are lone pairs on both O and N atoms in NO2. As a result, the oxygen atoms are spread widely and the angle that is formed is nearly134o. This implies that NO2 molecular geometry will be bent.

Solid N2O5 is a salt, consisting of separated anions and cations. The cation is the linear nitronium ion, NO2+ and the anion is the planar nitrate ion, NO3-.
