Q. Match the following compounds (Column-I) with their uses (Column-II) :
S.No. Column-I S.No. Column-II
(I) $Ca(OH)_{2}$ (A) casts of statue
(II) $NaCl$ (B) white wash
(III) $CaSO_{4}.\frac{1}{2}H_{2}O$ (C) antacid
(IV) $CaCO_{3}$ (D) washing soda preparation

JEE MainJEE Main 2020The s-Block Elements

Solution:

(I) $Ca ( OH )_{2}$ is used in white wash

(II) $NaCl$ is used in preparation of washing soda

$2 NH _{3}+ H _{2} O + CO _{2} \to \left( NH _{4}\right)_{2} CO _{3} $

$( NH _{4})_{2} CO _{3}+ H _{2} O + CO _{2} \to 2 NH _{4} HCO _{3} $

$NH _{4} HCO _{3}+ NaCl \to NH _{4} Cl + NaHCO _{3}( s )$

$2 NaHCO _{3} \stackrel{\Delta}{\longrightarrow } Na _{2} CO _{3}+ CO _{2}+ H _{2} O$

(III) $CaSO _{4} \cdot \frac{1}{2} H _{2} O$ (Plaster of Paris) is used for making casts of statues

(IV) $CaCO _{3}$ is used as an antacid
