MCQ
Which of the following have maximum tendancy for hydrate formation
  • $He$
  • B
    $Xe$
  • C
    $F^-$
  • D
    $I^-$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$He$
a
When a mixture containing chloride ion is heated with $K _2 Cr _2 O _7$ and concentrated $H _2 SO _4$, deep orange-red fumes of chromyl choloride $\left( CrO _2 Cl _2\right)$ are formed.

$K _2 Cr _2 O _7+4 NaCl +6 H _2 SO _4 \rightarrow 2 KHSO _4+4 NaHSO _4+\underset{\text { Oranger red fumes }}{2 CrO _2 Cl _2} \uparrow+3 H _2 O$

When chromyl chloride vapours are passed into sodium hydroxide solution, a yellow solution of sodium chromate is formed, which when treated with lead acetate gives yellow precipitate of lead chromate.

$CrO _2 Cl _2 \uparrow+2 NaOH \rightarrow \underset{ \text { Yellow solution }}{ Na _2 CrO _4}+2 HCl$
