Multiple choice chemistry nitrogen and sulfur nitrogen gas component of air - nitrogen nitrogen

The mixture of $CO$ and $N _2$ is called as :

  1. Water gas

  2. Producer gas

  3. Synthetic gas

  4. Marsh gas
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Water gas is a synthesis gas, containing carbon monoxide and hydrogen. It is a useful product but requires careful handling due to its flammability and the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning. 
Producer gas: a gas composed of carbon monoxide, hydrogen, and nitrogen, obtained by passing air and steam through incandescent coke.
Syngas/synthesis gas, is a fuel gas mixture consisting primarily of hydrogen, carbon monoxide, and very often some carbon dioxide.
Marsh gas is methane $CH _4$.

Multiple choice chemistry nitrogen and sulfur nitrogen gas component of air - nitrogen nitrogen

Nitrogen molecule is chemically less active because of its :

  1. small atomic energy.

  2. high dissociation energy.

  3. high electronegativity.

  4. stable electronic configuration.

B Correct answer
Explanation
Nitrogen molecule is chemically less active because of its high dissociation energy. Nitrogen molecule contains triple bond between two atoms which is very strong and requires high energy for splitting the two nitrogen atoms of a molecule. 


Multiple choice chemistry nitrogen and sulfur ammonia-properties and uses ammonia compounds of nitrogen - ammonia

Ammonia is used in detection of $Cu^{2+}$ ion because:

  1. aqueous solution of $NH _{3}$ reacts with $Cu^{2+}$ ion to form deep blue coloured complex
  2. $NH _{3}$ reacts with $Cu^{2+}$ ion to give blue precipitate of $CuO$
  3. aqueous solution of $NH _{3}$ reacts with $Cu^{2+}$ ion to form white coloured complex.
  4. $NH _{3}$ reacts with $Cu^{2+}$ ion to give green precipitate.

A Correct answer
Explanation

Ammonia acts as a Lewis base due to the presence of lone pair of  on the nitrogen atom.so,it can form coordinate bond transition metal cations to from complex compounds.Ammonia reacts with a solution of $Cu^{2+}$  to from a deep blue coloured complex.The reaction for the above complex  compound can be written as follows:

$Cu^{2+}(aq) + 4 NH _3(aq)\rightarrow [Cu(NH _3) _4]^{2+}(aq)$

                                                                              Deep Blue

Hence option A is correct.

Ammonia is a Lewis base. It forms complexes with cations. Which one of the following cations does not form complex with ammonia?

  1. Ag$^{+}$
  2. Cu$^{2+}$
  3. Cd$^{2+}$
  4. Pb$^{2+}$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation
Ammonia is a Lewis base. It forms complexes with cations of transition elements. $Pb^{2+}$ does not form a complex with ammonia as lead ($Pb$) is not a transition element. Lead ($Pb$) is a p - block element.

Hence option D is correct.

$-{ NH } _{ 2 }$ group shows acidic nature while reacts with this reagent:

  1. $Na$
  2. ${ CS } _{ 2 }$
  3. ${ Br } _{ 2 }+NaOH$

  4. water

A Correct answer
Explanation

A compound shows acidic nature if the opposite atom or compound of the bond shows basic character. Sodium is a metal and it is basic in nature. $-NH _2$ shows acidic character when it reacts with sodium.

Acidic nature of amino group is shown by the reaction :-

  1. $R{ - }{ N }{ H } _{ 2\quad }+NOCL\longrightarrow RCI+{ N } _{ 2 }+{ H } _{ 2 }O$
  2. $2RN{ H } _{ 2 }+2Na\longrightarrow 2RNH.Na+{ N } _{ 2 }$
  3. $R.C{ H } _{ 2 }N{ H } _{ 2 }+HN{ O } _{ 2 }+{ N } _{ 2 }+{ H } _{ 2 }{ O }$
  4. $R.N{ H } _{ 2 }+HCL\longrightarrow RN{ H } _{ 3 }CL$

B Correct answer
Explanation

The acidic nature of the amino group (or more accurately, the hydrogen atoms attached to the nitrogen) can be demonstrated by reactions with strong bases or active metals like sodium, where the hydrogen is replaced.

Multiple choice chemistry nitrogen and sulfur ammonia-properties and uses ammonia compounds of nitrogen - ammonia

The enthalpy of formation of ammonia is $-46.0KJ{mol}^{-1}$. The enthalpy change for the reaction 
$2{NH} _{3}(g)\rightarrow {N} _{2}(g)+3{H} _{2}(g)$

  1. $46.0KJ{mol}^{-1}$
  2. $92.0KJ{mol}^{-1}$
  3. $-23.0KJ{mol}^{-1}$
  4. $-92.0KJ{mol}^{-1}$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

The formation reaction of ammonia is N2(g) + 3H2(g) -> 2NH3(g) with an enthalpy change of -46.0 kJ per mole of ammonia formed. The reverse reaction given is 2NH3(g) -> N2(g) + 3H2(g), which reverses the sign and doubles the value since 2 moles are involved, yielding +92.0 kJ/mol.

Multiple choice chemistry nitrogen and sulfur ammonia-properties and uses ammonia compounds of nitrogen - ammonia

Which one does not liberate NH3 when undergoes hydrolysis?

  1. Acetaniide

  2. Acetonitrile

  3. Acetamide

  4. Phenyl isocyanide
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Acetamide, acetanilide, and acetonitrile all contain nitrogen in forms that can be hydrolyzed to release ammonia or ammonium ions. Phenyl isocyanide (phenyl carbylamine) does not undergo hydrolysis to liberate ammonia.
