Which of the following is not correct?
Options
- ASiO ₂ is used as acid flux
- BThe distance between the layers in graphite is 3.35 10⁻³ ~cm
- CSiO ₂ reacts with Na ₂ CO ₃ and liberates CO .
- DThe hybridisation of C in graphite is s p^2
Correct answer
C. SiO ₂ reacts with Na ₂ CO ₃ and liberates CO .
Step-by-step solution
Silica reacts with metal carbonate forming silicate with the evolution of CO ₂ .
