Question

Identify the incorrect statement among the following.

(A) Cl₂ reacts with excess of NH₃ to give N₂ and HCl.

(B) Br₂ reacts with hot and strong NaOH solution to give NaBr,NaBrO₄ and H₂O.

(C) Ozone reacts with SO₂ to given SO₃.

(D) Siliconreacts with NaOH_(aq) in the presence of air to give Na₂SiO₃ and H₂O.

Answer 1

Correct Answer is: (B) Br₂ reacts with hot and strong NaOH solution to give NaBr,NaBrO₄ and H₂O.

3Br₂ + 6NaOH → 5NaBr + NaBrO₃ + 3H₂O O₃ + SO₂ → O₂ + SO₃

Si + 2NaOH + O₂ → NaSiO₃ + H₂O

CI₂ reacts with excess of ammonia to produce ammonium chloride and nitrogen.
