nitrogen Flashcards
nitrogen’s os
+1, +2, +4
nitrogen’s single bond….
is weaker than phosphorus single bond
because of high interelectronic replusions of non bonding electrons
the stability of hydrides decreases from
nh3 to bih3
ammonia is………. and bismuth is ………..
mild reducing agent and strong reducing agent
pcl3 prep
- dry cholrine w white p
P4+cl2=PCl3 - thionyl chloride w white p
p4 + SOCl2 = PCl3 + SO2 +S2Cl2
PCl3 is
colourless oily liq
has pyramidal shape w p is sp3
PCl3 hydrolysis in moisture
PCl + 3H2O→H3PO +3HCl
nitrogen prep using ammonium chloride
NH4Cl + NaNO3 = N2+ H2o + nacl
nitrogen prep using ammonium dichromate
(NH4)2Cr2O7 + heat = N2+ 4H2O + Cr2O3
thermal decomposition of na or ba azide
Ba(N3)2 = Ba + 3N2
ammonium salts which
decompose when treated with caustic soda or calcium hydroxide
2NH4Cl + Ca(OH)2 → 2NH3 + 2H2O + CaCl2
(NH4)2 SO4 + 2NaOH → 2NH3 + 2H2O + Na2SO4
