' X ' on hydrolysis gives two products. One of them is solid. What is ' X '?
Options
- AP ₄ O ₁₀
- BF ₂
- CSiCl ₄
- DN ³⁻
Correct answer
C. SiCl ₄
Step-by-step solution
( SiCl ₄ ) 1. Hydrolysis of P ₄ O ₁₀ P ₄ O ₁₀+6 H ₂ O 4 4 H ₃ PO ₄ H ₃ PO ₄ and P ₄ O ₁₀ are not solid under standard 2. Hydrolysis of F ₂ 2 ~F ₂+2 H ₂ O 4 HF + O ₂ H.F is a liquid or gas and O ₂ is a gas 3. Hydrolysis of SiCl ₄ SiCl ₄+2 H ₂ O SiO ₂+4 HCl SiO ₂ is a solid and HCl is a gas Hydrolysis of N ₂ Nitrogen gas N ₂ is relatively inert and does not hydrolyse under normal conditions.
