What happens when white phosphorus is heated with concentrated NaOH solution in an inert atmosphere of CO2?
How is nitrogen prepared in the laboratory? Write the chemical equations of the reactions . involved.
Explain why does the stability of oxoacids of chlorine increase in the order given below:
HClO < HClO2 < HClO3 < HClO4
Phosphorus forms a number of oxoacids. Out of these oxoacids phosphinic acid has strong reducing property. Write its structure and also write a reaction showing its reducing behaviour.
