A metal (P)\text{(P)} on heating in nitrogen gas gives compound Q.Q\text{Q}\text{.}\text{Q} on treatment with H2O{H}_{2}O gives a colourless gas which when passed through \text{CuS}{\text{O}_{4} solution gives a dark blue-violet coloured solution. P\text{P} and Q\text{Q} respectively, are

Options

  1. ANa and \text{N}{\text{a}_{3}N
  2. BNa and \text{NaN}{\text{O}_{3}
  3. CMg and \text{M}{\text{g}_{3}{N}_{2}
  4. DMg and \text{Mg} ( \text{N}{\text{O}_{3}{)}_{2}

Correct answer

C. Mg and \text{M}{\text{g}_{3}{N}_{2}

Step-by-step solution

\text{P} + {N}_{2} \to \text{nitride(Q)}\overset{{H}_{2} \text{O}}{→} {\text{NH}_{3} + {\text{CuSO}_{4} \to Blue-violet coloured sol.
\mathop{\text{3}\text{Mg}_{\left(\text{P}\right)} \text{+}{N}_{2} \to \mathop{{\text{Mg}_{3} {N}_{2}}_{\left(\text{Q}\right)} \overset{{H}_{2} \text{O}}{→} {\text{Mg(OH)}_{2} \text{+}{\text{NH}_{3}
Hence P\text{P} and Q\text{Q} are Mg\text{Mg} and \text{M}{\text{g}_{3}{N}_{2} respectively.
