Question

An inorganic salt $(A)$ is decomposed on heating to give two products $(B)$ and $(C)$. Compound $(C)$ is a liquid at room temperature and is neutral to litmus while the compound $(B)$ is a colourless neutral gas. Compounds $(A)$, $(B)$ and $(C)$ are

• A. $NH_{4}NO_{3}, N_{2}O, H_{2}O$
• B. $NH_{4}NO_{2}, NO, H_{2}O$
• C. $CaO, H_{2}O, CaCI_{2}$
• D. $Ba\left(NO_{3}\right)_{2}, H_{2}O, NO_{2}$

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

$NH_{4}NO_{3}, N_{2}O, H_{2}O$

Answer 2

$NH_4\underset{A}{NO_{3}}(s) \to \underset{B}{N_2O}(g)+\underset{C}{2H_{2}O}(l)$
