p-Block Elements (Class 12) · Class 12 · JEE Main Previous Year Question
Chemical nature of the nitrogen oxide compound obtained from a reaction of concentrated nitric acid and (in 4:1 ratio) is:
- a✓
acidic
- b
basic
- c
amphoteric
- d
neutral
acidic
Strategy: Evaluate the reaction between a strong oxidizing acid and a powerful dehydrating agent.
Step 1: Product Identification The reaction between concentrated Nitric acid and Phosphorus pentoxide is a dehydration reaction: The Nitrogen-containing product is Dinitrogen pentoxide .
Step 2: Chemical Nature is a characteristic non-metal oxide (anhydride of ). Such oxides are distinctly acidic in nature.
