Questions Related to nitrogen - 15 group

Which of the following halide of nitrogen is unstable in nature?

chemistry p- block elements-ii anomalous properties of nitrogen nitrogen - 15 group group 15 elements

  1. $NCl _3$

  2. $NBr _3$

  3. $NI _3$

  4. $NF _3$

Show answer
Correct Option: A,B,C
Explanation:

Nitrogen has very small size as compared to the halogens, which have much larger sizes. Due to this, they can not remain bonded to the nitrogen atom and hence are highly unstable. $NF _3 $ is stable because fluorine and nitrogen have comparable sizes and electronegativity.

In the commercial preparation of dinitrogen by the liquefaction and fractional distillation,dinitrogen is obtained in:

  1. liquid form

  2. gaseous form

  3. mixture of liquid and gases

  4. none

Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

In the commercial preparation of dinitrogen by the liquefaction and fractional distillation,dinitrogen is obtained in gaseous form.

Compound formed on reaction of nitrogen with oxygen at very high temperature is:

Which of the following can produce ammonia from ammonium salts?

chemistry p- block elements-ii anomalous properties of nitrogen nitrogen - 15 group group 15 elements

  1. Quick lime

  2. Caustic soda

  3. slaked lime

  4. All

Show answer
Correct Option: B,C
Explanation:

Quick lime is $CaO$,caustic soda is$NaOH$, slaked lime is $Ca(OH) _2$.

$NH _4Cl+NaOH \rightarrow NH _3+H _2O+NaCl$
$NH _4Cl+Ca(OH) _2 \rightarrow NH _3+H _2O+CaCl _2$
