$NH _4CI, NH _4NO _3$ and $(NH _4) _2CO _3$ gives $NH _3$ gas on heating.

  1. True

  2. False


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Reaction:
$NH _4NO _3\rightarrow N _2O+2H _2O$
$NH _4Cl\rightarrow NH _3+HCl$
$(NH _4) _2CO _3\rightarrow 2 NH _3 + H _2O + CO _2$

Which of the following is/are correct?

  1. Hydrolysis of $NCl _3$ gives $NH _3$ and $HClO$

  2. $NH _3$ is less stable than $PH _3$

  3. $NH _3$ is a weak reducing agent compared to $PH _3$

  4. Nitric oxide is paramagnetic


Correct Option: A,C,D
Explanation:

A) $NCl _3$ is hydrolyzed by hot water to release ammonia and hypochlorous acid.
 $NCl _3 + 3H _2O\rightarrow NH _3 + 3HOCl$

B)  $NH _3$ is less stable than $PH _3$, because $NH _3$ is more stable than $PH _3$ due to inter molecular hydrogen bonding.
C) $NH _3$ is a weak reducing agent compared to $PH _3$, because from $NH _3$ to $PH _3$ reducing nature increases down the group.
D) Nitric oxide is paramagnetic, because it is having unpaired electrons.
Hence, options A,C & D are correct.

Ammonia is not a product in the :

  1. hydrolysis of nitrolim

  2. hydrolysis of aluminium nitride

  3. decomposition of ammonium nitrite

  4. hydrolysis of urea


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

$NH _3NO _3\rightarrow N _2O+2H _2O$
Nitrous oxide is produced after decomposition of ammonium nitrite instead of ammonia.

 Which compound does not give ammonia gas on reaction with water ?

  1. $ \mathrm{M}\mathrm{g} _{3}\mathrm{N} _{2}$

  2. $ \mathrm{A}\mathrm{l}\mathrm{N}$

  3. $\mathrm{C}\mathrm{a}\mathrm{C}\mathrm{N} _{2}$

  4. $\mathrm{C}\mathrm{a}(\mathrm{C}\mathrm{N}) _{2}$


Correct Option: D
Explanation:
$Mg _3N _2 + 6H _2O \longrightarrow3Mg(OH) _2 + 2NH _3$

$AlN + 3H _2O \longrightarrow NH _3 + Al(OH) _3$

$2H _2O + Ca(CN) _2 \longrightarrow Ca(OH) _2 + 2HCN$

$CaCN _{2} + 3H _{2}O\longrightarrow$ $CaCO _{3} + 2NH _{3}$

$Ca(CN) _2$ does not produce ammonia on reacting with water.
