The hybridisation of n2o is sp=> linear molecule=>bond angle 180
the hybridisation of no2+ is also sp=> linear=> bond angle 180
the hybridisation of no2- is sp2=> trigonal planar=> bond angle may be 120 or lesser
the hybridisation of no3- is sp2=> trigonal planar=> bond angle may 120 or lesser
Let us compare no2- and no3-
no2- has lone pair hence bond angle further decreases
no3-has no lone pair hence bond angle is 120
Therefore least bond angle is of NO2-
the hybridisation of no2+ is also sp=> linear=> bond angle 180
the hybridisation of no2- is sp2=> trigonal planar=> bond angle may be 120 or lesser
the hybridisation of no3- is sp2=> trigonal planar=> bond angle may 120 or lesser
Let us compare no2- and no3-
no2- has lone pair hence bond angle further decreases
no3-has no lone pair hence bond angle is 120
Therefore least bond angle is of NO2-
