Two oxides of an non-metal X contain 50% and 40% of non-metal respectively. If the formula of the first oxide is XO2. Then the formula of second oxide is
X2O3
X2O5
XO3
X2O
S + Conc. H2SO4 → X + Y
Here X is a gas and Y is a liquid and both are triatomic molecules. The number of electron lone pairs present on the central atoms of X and Y are respectively.
2,1
1,0
1,2
2,2
Which one ofthe following statements is not correct?
In CO2 molecule, carbon hybridisation is sp
Fullerenes are made by heating graphite in an electric are in the presence of argon gas
Both [SiF6]2- and [SiCl6]2- ions are known
In CO molecule, there are one 'sigma' and two "pi" bonds
Chlorine atom differs from chloride in the number of which of the following?

Electrons
Both (a) and (c)
In the following reaction,
P4 + 3NaOH + 3H2O → PH3 + 3NaH2PO2
phosphorus is oxidised
phosphorus is oxidised and reduced
phosphorus is reduced
sodium is oxidised
B.
phosphorus is oxidised and reduced
P4 + 3NaOH + 3H2O → PH3 + 3NaH2PO2
In this reaction, oxidation number of phosphorus is changing from zero to -3 and zero to +1. Hence both oxidation and reduction of phosphorus takes place.
