Detailed Solution
NO is not formed by oxidation of N2 by O3N2 +O2 → NOWhen lightning occurs thus (I) is correct.NO +O3 → NO2 + O2in the stratosphere thus (lll) is correct.N2 +O3 → N2O + O2N2 +O → N2OThus, (IV) is correct.Note: NO2 is further oxidized to NO3− which is washed in rain water to soil and serves as fertilizer.
