<img class="img-fluid question-image" alt="Solution" src="https://cdn.tardigrade.in/q/nta/c-fa9fyrsxetsu.png" /> For alkaline earth metals M(N O3)2 arrow MO(s)+2NO2+(1/2)O2

Q. Alkaline earth metal nitrates on heating decompose to give

$M (N O_{2})_{2} an d O_{2} o n l y$

$MO, N_{2} an d O_{2}$

$MO, N O_{2} an d O_{2}$

$MO an d N O_{2} o n l y$

For alkaline earth metals

$M (N O_{3})_{2} \to MO (s) + 2 N O_{2} + \frac{1}{2} O_{2}$

Q. Alkaline earth metal nitrates on heating decompose to give

M(NO2​)2​andO2​only

MO,N2​andO2​

MO,NO2​andO2​

MOandNO2​only

For alkaline earth metals M(NO3​)2​→MO(s)+2NO2​+21​O2​

$M (N O_{2})_{2} an d O_{2} o n l y$

$MO, N_{2} an d O_{2}$

$MO, N O_{2} an d O_{2}$

$MO an d N O_{2} o n l y$

For alkaline earth metals

$M (N O_{3})_{2} \to MO (s) + 2 N O_{2} + \frac{1}{2} O_{2}$
