$\mathrm{Mg}\left(\mathrm{NO}_{3}\right)_{2} \cdot \mathrm{XH}_{2} \mathrm{O}$ and $\mathrm{Ba}\left(\mathrm{NO}_{3}\right)_{2} \cdot \mathrm{YH}_{2} \mathrm{O}$, represent formula of the crystalline forms of nitrate salts. Sum of $\mathrm{X}$ and $\mathrm{Y}$ is _____________.
Explanation:
Magnesium nitrate typically crystallizes as a hexahydrate, which means it has six water molecules in its crystal structure. So, X = 6.
On the other hand, barium nitrate commonly crystallizes as an anhydrous salt, meaning it does not incorporate water molecules into its crystal structure. So, Y = 0.
Therefore, the sum of X and Y would indeed be 6 + 0 = 6.
Explanation:
Li does not form superoxide.
K, Rb and Cs form stable super oxides but Cs has ionisation enthalpy less than 400 kJ. While K and Rb have ionisation enthalpy greater than 400 kJ mol–1.
On heating, $\mathrm{LiNO_3}$ gives how many compounds among the following __________
$\mathrm{Li_2O,N_2,O_2,LiNO_2,NO_2}$
Explanation:
$\mathrm{LiNO_3\buildrel \Delta \over \longrightarrow Li_2O+NO_2+O_2}$
BeO reacts with HF in presence of ammonia to give [A] which on thermal decomposition produces [B] and ammonium fluoride. Oxidation state of Be in [A] is ____________.
Explanation:
$ \left(\mathrm{NH}_4\right)_2\left(\mathrm{BeF}_4\right) \stackrel{\text { Heating }}{\longrightarrow} \underset{\text { (B) }}{\mathrm{BeF}_2}+2 \mathrm{NH}_4 \mathrm{~F} $
Oxidation State of Be in $(A)$ is $(+2)$
Reaction of Br2 with Na2CO3 in aqueous solution gives sodium bromide and sodium bromate with evolution of CO2 gas. The number of sodium bromide molecules involved in the balanced chemical equation is ________.
Explanation:
The balanced chemical equation is
