A tetra-atomic molecule X on reaction with nitrogen oxide (Oxidation State = 1) produces two substances Y and Z. Y is a dehydrating agent while compound Z is a diatomic gas which shows almost inert gas behavior. The substances X, Y and Z are

Options

  1. AP 4 , N 2 O 5 , O 2
  2. BP 4 , P 4 O 10 , Ar
  3. CP 4 , P 2 O 3 , O 2
  4. DP 4 , P 4 O 10 , N 2

Correct answer

D. P 4 , P 4 O 10 , N 2

Step-by-step solution

When P 4 is treated with N 2 O (O.S = 1) it produces P 4 O 10 and N 2 (diatomic molecule). P 4 O 10 used as dehydrating agent P 4 + 1 0 N 2 O → P 4 O 1 0 + 1 0 N 2 X Y Z
