Consider the following reactions (ignore balancing):

Na₂B₄O₇ + HCl + H₂O → (A) + NaCl

NH₄NO₂ (B) + H₂O

 

How many of the following statements are CORRECT regarding (A) and (B)?

(i) (A) is a weak monobasic Lewis acid.

(ii) (A) has a layered structure with intermolecular hydrogen bonding.

(iii) (B) is paramagnetic.

(iv) (B) is used to provide an inert atmosphere.

(v) (A) on strong heating gives B₂O₃.

(vi) The bond angle about boron in (A) is 120°.

(vii) (A) is a tribasic acid.

(viii) (B) is a colored gas.

Answer:
5
Solution:

A = H₃BO₃, B = N₂. Correct: (i), (ii), (iv), (v), (vi) = 5. N₂ is diamagnetic and colourless ((iii), (viii) false); H₃BO₃ is monobasic ((vii) false).
