Why has it been difficult to study the chemistry of radon?
Radon is radioactive with very short half-life which makes the study of chemistry of radon difficult.
Name three oxoacids of nitrogen. Write the disproportionation reaction of that oxoacid of nitrogen in which nitrogen is in +3 oxidation state.
How is nitrogen prepared in the laboratory? Write the chemical equations of the reactions . involved.
Explain why inspite of nearly the same electronegativity, nitrogen forms hydrogen bonding while chlorine does not.
Explain why does the stability of oxoacids of chlorine increase in the order given below:
HClO < HClO2 < HClO3 < HClO4
Match the compounds given in Column I with the hybridization and shape given in Column II and mark the correct option.
Why is BiH3 the strongest reducing agent amongst all the hydrides of group 15 elements? (C.B.S.E. 2013)
Why does nitrogen show catenation properties less than phosphorus ? (C.B.S.E. Foreign 2009)
Why is BiH3 the strongest reducing agent amongst all the hydrides of Group 15 elements?
Assertion (A): HNO3 makes from passive.
Reason (R): HNO3 forms a protective layer of ferric nitrate on the surface of iron.
Justify the placement of O, S, Se, Te and Po in the same group’of the periodic table in terms of electronic configuration, oxidation state and hydride formation.
What happens when sulp'hur dioxide is passed through an aqueous solution of Fe(III) salt?
Write a balanced chemical equation, for the reaction showing catalytic oxidation of NH3 by atmospheric oxygen.
PCl5 reacts with finely divided silver on heating and a white silver salt is obtained, which dissolves on adding excess aqueous NH3 solution. Write the reactions involved to explain what happens.
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.
An amorphous solid "A"bums in air to form a gas "B"which turns lime water milky. The gas is also produced as a by-product during roasting of sulphide ore. This gas decolourises acidified aqueous KMnO4 solution and reduces Fe3+ to Fe+2. Identify the solid "A"and the gas "B"and write the reactions involved.
What happens when white phosphorus is heated with concentrated NaOH solution in an inert atmosphere of CO2?
What happens when sulp’hur dioxide is passed through an aqueous solution of Fe(III) salt?
The HNH angle value is higher than HPH, H AsH and HSbH angles. Why?
(Hint: Can be explained on the basis of sp3 hybridisation in NH3 and only s-p bonding , between hydrogen and other elements of the group).
Give the formula and describe the structure of a noble gas species which is isostructural with: (i) ICI4– (ii) IBr2– (iii) Br03–
In qualitative analysis when H2S is passed through an aqueous solution of salt acidified with dil. HCl, a black precipitate is obtained. On boiling the precipitate with dil. HNO3, it forms a solution of blue colour. Addition of excess of aqueous solution of ammonia to this solution gives
On heating ammonium dichromate and barium azide separately we get
(a) N2 in both cases
(b) N2 with ammonium dichromate and NO with barium azide
(c) N2O with ammonium dichromate and N2 with barium azide
(d) N2O with ammonium dichromate and N2O with barium azide
