The compound that does not produce nitrogen gas by thermal decomposition is:
Options
- AN H 4 2 S O 4
- BB a N 3 2
- CN H 4 2 C r 2 O 7
- DN H 4 N O 2
Correct answer
A. N H 4 2 S O 4
Step-by-step solution
(i) N H 4 2 C r 2 O 7   → Δ   C r 2 O 3 + N 2 + 4 H 2 O (ii) N H 4 N O 2   → Δ   N 2 + 2 H 2 O (iii) N H 4 2 S O 4   → Δ   2 N H 3 + H 2 S O 4 (iv) B a N 3 2   → Δ   B a + 3 N 2 In reaction (iii) N H 3 is evolved whereas in reaction 1, 2 and 4 N 2 is evolved.
