Does boron or HBF4 react with NH3 to give Boron nitride?
No
True or False
Does AlCl3 sublimes at 100°C under vaccum
True
Al(CH3)3 has the three centre two electron bonds in its dimeric structure (True/False)
True
BF3 reacts with NaH at 450K to give?
B2H6 + NaF
Preparation of B2H6 from NaBH4 and BF3?
3NaBH4 + 4BF3 (450K) =====> NaBF4+ 2B2H6
pH of the buffer of aqueous solution of Borax?
9
Give preparation of diborane through the reaction of NaBH4 and I2.
2NaBH4 + I2 =====> B2H6 + 2NaI + H2
Strongest back bonding in which boron halide?
BF3
In Hall heroult’s process, electrolyte is Al2O3?
True
Heating aqueous solution of aluminium chloride to dryness gives?
AlCl3
In Borax, all boron atoms lie in same plane?
False
2X + B2H6 =====> [BH2X2] + [BH4(-)]
X can be
A) NH3
B) CH3NH2
C) (CH3)2NH
D) (CH3)3N
A,B,C
Why Al(OH)3 is amphoteric in nature?
Because Al–O and O—H bonds can be broken with equal ease.
Which has is liberated on action of Aluminium with conc. NaOH?
H2
Aluminium sulphide gives a foul odour when it becomes damp. Give balanced chemical equation.
Al2S3 + 6H2O ====> 2Al(OH)3 + 3H2S
(rotten egg smell)
How is Boron obtained from Borax?
Give equations
Na2B4O7 + 2(hot conc)HCl => 2NaCl + H2B4O7
H2B4O7 + 5H2O ==> 4H3BO3
(sparingly soluble)
2H3BO3 ==> (heat strongly) B2O3 + 3H2O
B2O3 + 6K(or Na or Mg) => 2B +3K2O
Rxn of Al with aqueous NaOH. Give equations.
2Al+ 2NaOH + 2H2O ===> 2NaAlO2 + 3H2
Rxn of AlBr3 with H3PO4 and K2Cr2O7
AlBr3 + K2Cr2O7+ H3PO4 => K3PO4 + AlPO4+ H2O + Cr(3+) + Br2
