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.

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
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.

On heating ammonium dichromate and barium azide separately we get:

  1. $N _{2}$ in both cases
  2. $N _{2}$ with ammonium dichromate and $NO$ with barium azide
  3. $N _{2}O$ with ammonium dichromate and $N _{2}$ with barium azide
  4. $N _{2}O$ with ammonium dichromate and $NO _{2}$ with barium azide
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

On heating ammonium dichromate and barium azide separately we get $N _2$ in both cases.

$(NH _4) _2Cr _2O _7 \rightarrow Cr _2O _3 + 4H _2O +N _2$.

$Ba(N _3) _2 \rightarrow Ba + 3N _2$.

Hence option A is correct.

Multiple choice chemistry preparation of gases nitrogen gas component of air - nitrogen nitrogen

Concentrated nitric acid on reacting with any metal like copper releases gas with an irritating odour :

  1. $H _2 S$
  2. $CuS$
  3. $H _2$
  4. $NO _2$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Nitrogen dioxide is the chemical compound with the formula $NO _2$. It is one of several nitrogen oxides. $NO _2$ is an intermediate in the industrial synthesis of nitric acid, millions of tons of which are produced each year. This reddish-brown toxic gas has a characteristic sharp, biting odor and is a prominent air pollutant. Reduction of concentrated nitric acid by metal (such as copper).
$4 HNO _3 +Cu \rightarrow Cu(NO _3) _2+ 2 NO _2 + 2 H _2O$

Nitrogen is liberated by the thermal decomposition of :

  1. $NH _4NO _2$
  2. $NaN _3$
  3. $(NH _4) _2Cr _2O _7$
  4. All of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

$ { { (NH } _{ 2 }) } _{ 2 }{ Cr } _{ 2 }{ O } _{ 7 }\xrightarrow [ thermal\quad decomposition ]{ \Delta  } { Cr } _{ 2 }{ O } _{ 3 }+{ N } _{ 2 }+4{ H } _{ 2 }O\ N{ H } _{ 4 }{ NO } _{ 2 }\xrightarrow [ thermal\quad decomposition ]{ \Delta  } { N } _{ 2 }+2{ H } _{ 2 }O\ 2{ NaN } _{ 3 }\xrightarrow [ thermal\quad decomposition ]{ \Delta  } 2Na+3{ N } _{ 2 } $

Hence, all of these.

Out of the following which does not liberate $N _2$ gas on heating?

  1. $NaNO _2+NH _4Cl$
  2. $Ba(N _3) _2$
  3. $O _3+NO$
  4. $(NH _4) _2Cr _2O _7$

C Correct answer
Explanation

A. $NaNO _2+NH _4Cl\longrightarrow N _2+2H _2O+NaCl$

B. $Ba(N _3) _2\longrightarrow Ba+3N _2$
C. $O _3+NO\longrightarrow NO _2+O _2$
D. $(NH _4) _2Cr _2O _7 \longrightarrow N _2+Cr _2O _3+4H _2O$
Hence, answer is $O _3+NO$..

Multiple choice chemistry preparation of gases nitrogen gas component of air - nitrogen nitrogen

Which of the following compound does not liberate nitrogen with $HNO _{2}$?

  1. Carbamide

  2. Primary amine

  3. Secondary amine

  4. Alkanamide

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Secondary amines do not read with $HNO _2$ to produce $H _2.$

$\Rightarrow R _2NH+H-O-N=0\rightarrow R _2N-N=0+H _2O$
Hence, the answer is secondary amines.
