MCQ
$C{u^{2 + }}(aq.) + {X^ - }(aq.)\xrightarrow{{R.T.}}CuX \downarrow  + {X_2}$

$'X'$ cannot be

  • $Cl^- (aq.)$
  • B
    $I^- (aq.)$
  • C
    $CN^- (aq.)$
  • D
    $SCN^- (aq.)$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$Cl^- (aq.)$
a
$Cu^{2+}(aq.)$ has oxidizing property it oxidizes $I^-(aq.)$ $CN^-(aq.)$ $SCN^-(aq.)$  into $I_2,\,(CN)_2,\,(SCN)_2$ respectively but does not oxidize $Cl^-(aq.)$ as it is weaker reductant.

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $(A)$ and the other is labelled as Reason $(R)$.

Assertion $(A)$ : $\mathrm{NH}_3$ and $\mathrm{NF}_3$ molecule have pyramidal shape with a lone pair of electrons on nitrogen atom. The resultant dipole moment of $\mathrm{NH}_3$ is greater than that of $\mathrm{NF}_3$.

Reason $(R)$ : In $\mathrm{NH}_3$, the orbital dipole due to lone pair is in the same direction as the resultant dipole moment of the $\mathrm{N}-\mathrm{H}$ bonds. $\mathrm{F}$ is the most electronegative element.
