MCQ
$(NH_4)_2Cr_2O_7$ on heating gives :
  • A
    $ N_2O$
  • B
    $NH_3$
  • C
    $NO_2$
  • $N_2$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$N_2$
d
On heating, $\left(\mathrm{NH}_{4}\right)_{2} \mathrm{Cr}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{7}$ gives, nitrogen gas.

$\left(\mathrm{NH}_{4}\right)_{2} \mathrm{Cr}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{7} \rightarrow \mathrm{N}_{2}+\mathrm{Cr}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{3}+4 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}$

But whenever, $\mathrm{NH}_{4} \mathrm{NO}_{2}$ and $\mathrm{NH}_{4} \mathrm{NO}_{3}$ heated, then nitrogen and nitrogen dioxide gas liberated.

$\begin{array}{l}\mathrm{NH}_{4} \mathrm{NO}_{2} \rightarrow \mathrm{N}_{2}+2 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} \\\mathrm{NH}_{4} \mathrm{NO}_{3} \rightarrow \mathrm{N}_{2} \mathrm{O}+2 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\end{array}$

So, the correct option is $\mathrm{D}$
