Which of the following oxide is amphoteric?
SnO2
CaO2
SiO2
SiO2
A.
SnO2
SnO2 is an amphoteric oxide because it reacts with acids as well as bases to form corresponding salts.
SnO2 +4HCl → SnCl4 +2H2O
SnO2 + 2 NaOH → Na2SnO3 + H2O
Strong reducing behaviour of H3PO4 is due to
the presence of one -OH group and two P-H bonds
high electron gain enthalpy of phosphorous
the high oxidation state of phosphorus
the high oxidation state of phosphorus
Oxidation states of P in H4P2O5, H4P2O6, H4P2O7, are respectively
+3, +5, +4
+5, +3, +4
+5, +4,+3
+5, +4,+3
The correct order of increasing bond angles in
Cl2O < ClO2 < ClO2-
ClO2 <Cl2O< ClO2-
Cl2O < ClO2- < ClO2
Cl2O < ClO2- < ClO2
