Copper dissolves in moderately concentrated trioxonitrate (V) {HNO3} to evolve nitrogen(II) oxide and a green solution of copper(II) trioxonitrate(V)
i.e
3Cu + 8HNO3
> 3Cu(NO3)2 + 4H20 + 2NO2
Making option C correct

Cu + 4Hno3 _Cu(no3)2 + 2H20 + No2
Cu has a charge/valency of +2,No3 has a valency of -1
