Al 2 O 3 was leached with alkali to get X . The solution of X on passing of gas Y , forms Z . X , Y and Z respectively are
Options
- AX = Al OH 3 , Y = CO 2 ' ,   Z = Al 2 O 3
- BX = Na Al OH 4 , Y = SO 2 ,   Z = Al 2 O 3
- CX = Al OH 3 ,   Y = SO 2 ,   Z = Al 2 O 3 · xH 2 O
- DX = Na Al OH 4 ,   Y = CO 2 ,   Z = Al 2 O 3 ,   x H 2 O
Correct answer
D. X = Na Al OH 4 ,   Y = CO 2 ,   Z = Al 2 O 3 ,   x H 2 O
Step-by-step solution
(1) Al 2 O 3 + NaOH ⟶ Na Al ( OH ) 4 " X " (2) Na Al ( OH ) 4 → " Y " CO 2 Al ( OH ) 3 " Z " or Al 2 O 3 · xH 2 O So, when Al 2 O 3 was leached with alkali to get X . The solution of X on passing of gas Y , forms Z . X , Y and Z respectively are X : Na Al OH 4 Y : CO 2 Z : Al 2 O 3 · xH 2 O
