Question

How many of the following nitrates of metal 'M'. decompose on heating similar to as given below in the scheme? (where; M = Li , Be , Mg , K , Ca , Sr , Na , Rb, Ba ) Metal nitrate xrightarrow text Heat metal oxide + nitrogen dioxide + oxygen gas (A)  (B)  (C)  (D)

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Alkaline earth nitrates decompose in the following manner:
Metal nitrate

Heat

metal oxide

+

nitrogen dioxide

+

oxygen gas
Thus out of the given elements

B e, M g, C a, S r

and

B a

will show this behavior. But, Li due to it's diagonal relationship with

M g

, also shows similar kind of reaction.

Q. How many of the following nitrates of metal 'M'. decompose on heating similar to as given below in the scheme? (where; M=Li,Be,Mg,K,Ca,Sr,Na,Rb,Ba ) Metal nitrate Heat ​ metal oxide + nitrogen dioxide + oxygen gas

Alkaline earth nitrates decompose in the following manner: Metal nitrate Heat ​ metal oxide + nitrogen dioxide + oxygen gas Thus out of the given elements Be,Mg,Ca,Sr and Ba will show this behavior. But, Li due to it's diagonal relationship with Mg, also shows similar kind of reaction.

Q. How many of the following nitrates of metal ' $M$ '. decompose on heating similar to as given below in the scheme?
(where; $M = L i, B e, M g, K, C a, S r, N a, R b, B a$ )
Metal nitrate $Heat$ metal oxide $+$ nitrogen dioxide $+$ oxygen gas
