Correct option is (i)

The catalytic oxidation of ammonia produces NO gas, which is used to make HNO₃. 4 moles of NH₃ created 4 moles of NO in the equation below. As a result, the moles of NO produced by oxidising two moles of NH₃ will be two moles.

4NH₃ + 5O₂→4NO + 6H₂O.

Correct option is (i)

We get N₂ in both situations when we heat ammonium dichromate and barium azide separately.

(NH₄)2Cr₂O₇→Cr₂O₃ + 4H₂O + N₂

Ba (N₃)₂→Ba + 3N₂.

Correct option is (ii)

Bismuth is the sole element that has an inert pair effect. Only generates trihalides and has a +3 oxidation state. Florine, on the other hand, is small and has a high electronegativity.

Correct option is (i)

The 'Brown Ring Test' is an identification and conformation test of the nitrate ion  (NO₃^- ) using conc. H₂SO₄ and newly produced FeSO₄. Place the NO₃^-  containing sample in a test tube. Then, with gentle shaking, add conc H₂SO₄ dropwise, heat it briefly on a Bunsen burner, and add freshly made greenish FeSO4 Then, due to the creation of brown coloured  [Fe (H₂O)₅ (NO)]SO₄ complex, a brown ring forms in that test tube.

Correct option is (i)

The N-N sigma bond (single bond) is weaker than the P-P sigma bond (single bond) due to the smaller size of nitrogen which increases the interelectronic repulsions and thus making the bond weaker.

Correct option is (ii)

The valence electrons of nitrogen are two 2s and three 2p. Nitrogen can make three covalent bonds by sharing its three 2p electrons. Consider the NH₃ molecule. The nitrogen atom, however, still contains a lone pair of electrons in the 2s orbital. It can take one bond by transferring these two electrons from the lone pair. Consider the NH₄⁺ molecule.

As a result, nitrogen can create four different bonds.

Correct option is (i)

The single N-N bond is weak because of high interelectronic repulsion of the non-bonding electrons, owing to the small bond length. As a result the catenation tendency is weaker in nitrogen that is why it does not show allotropy

Correct option is (ii)

On heating, lead nitrate decomposes into lead monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, and oxygen.

2Pb (NO₃)₂→2PbO + 4NO₂ + O₂.

Correct option is (iii)

H₃PO₂ has one O-H group and two P-H bonds

The existence of a P-H link gives phosphorus oxyacids their reducing characteristics. It has a strong proclivity for releasing protons. As a result, it demonstrates a decreasing nature.
