From the given Chemical Reaction Identify (A) and (B)
(i). BaC2+N2Δ(B)
(ii). CaC2+N2Δ(A)
A) A:Ca(N=C=N); B:Ba(C≡N)2
B) A:Ca(N=C=N); B:Ba2(C≡N)4
C) A:Ca(N= C= N)2; B:Ba(C≡N)2
D) A:Ca(N=C=N)2; B:Ba2(C≡N)4
Solution
The Following reaction can be stated as Inorganic + Metallurgy Reaction and is a part of p block element and dinitrogen since its reaction between Calcium Carbide and Nitrogen and in part two Barium Carbide with Nitrogen.As its Inorganic-Metallurgy reaction the compound will be heated upto 1000∘Cto 1125∘C
Complete step-by-step answer:
i) In the Second reaction when Calcium carbide reacts with nitrogen to produce calcium cyanamide and carbon. Reaction proceeds at a heating a reaction mixture to the temperature of 1000∘C
ii) This product formation results in loss of Carbon molecules in Inorganic + Metallurgy reaction. Since the Calcium vacancy is fulfilled, the carbon molecule is lost in heat.
CaC2+N2ΔCa(N=C=N)
Likewise, in BaC2 when its heated with N2 its subsequently gives Ba(CN)2 with no lose in carbon in reaction.
BaC2+N2ΔBa(N=C=N) or BaC2+N2ΔBa(CN)2
Therefore, A and B are A:Ca(N=C=N); B:Ba(C≡N)2
So, option (A) is correct answer A:Ca(N=C=N); B:Ba(C≡N)2
Additional Information:
-Calcium cyanamide is the inorganic compound with the formula CaCN2and Ba(CN)2
-It is the calcium salt of the cyanamide CN2−2anion.
-This chemical is used as fertilizer and is commercially known as nitrolime.
Note: Here you will find the required reactants, CaC2forms cyanamide but not BaC2. Meanwhile the product we got from the second part of reaction, calcium cyanamide is known as nitrolim. The whole process of reaction is one of the reactions of nitrogen fixation.
