Question

A white crystalline compound (P) on heating, decomposes to give (Q) and (R) without any residue. Both (Q) and (R) are oxides of non-metals and (Q) is supporter of combustion. Compound $(P)$ on boiling with aq. NaOH gives a gas $(S)$ which is alkaline in nature. After complete evolution of gas (S), the remaining solution on treatment with metal zinc in alkaline condition, produces same gas (S). Choose the correct options.

Answer:

A, C, D

Solution:

NH₄NO₃(s) $Δ$ N₂O(g) + 2H₂O(g)Δ

NH₄NO₃(s) + NaOH(aq) $b o i l$ NH₃(g)↑ + NaNO₃(aq)

NO₃ ^-+ Zn + OH⁻ $⟶$ NH₃ ↑ + Zn²⁺ + H₂O
