Chemistry Question on p -Block Elements
Compound A reacts with NH4Cl and forms a compound B.
Compound B reacts with H2O and excess of CO2 to form compound C which on passing through or reaction with saturated NaCl solution forms sodium hydrogen carbonate Compound A,B and C, are respectively.
A
CaCl2,NH4+,(NH4)2CO3
B
CaCl2,NH3,NH4HCO3
C
Ca(OH)2,NH3,NH4HCO3
D
Ca(OH)2,NH4+,(NH4)2CO3
Answer
Ca(OH)2,NH3,NH4HCO3
Explanation
Solution
(A) Ca(OH)2+2NH4ClΔ (B) 2NH3+CaCl2+2H2O
(B) NH3+H2O+ (exc) CO2⟶ (C) NH4HCO3
(c)NH4HCO3+NaCl⟶NaHCO3↓+NH4Cl
