Aqua regia is used for dissolving noble metals (Au, Pt, etc.). The gas evolved in this process is
- a✓
NO
- b
- c
- d
NO
Strategy: Relate the electronic configuration of noble gases to their tendency to form compounds.
Step 1: Noble Gas Reactivity Noble gases were long considered inert due to their complete valence shells. However, Xenon reacts with highly electronegative elements like Fluorine and Oxygen due to its relatively lower ionization enthalpy compared to other noble gases.
Step 2: Conclusion The identification of the specific reactant or product in the question confirms the answer.
