Explain, (a) (i) [Ti(NO_(3))_(4)] (ii) [Cu(NC CH_(2))_(4)]^(+) BF_(4)^(-) (iii) [Cr(NH_(3))_(6)]^(3+)3Cl, (iv) K_(3)[VF_(6)] (b) Complete and balance the following reactions. (i) [MnO_(4)]^(2-) + H^(+) to ............... + [MnO_(4)]^(-) + H_(2)O (ii) Ca_(5)(PO_(4))_(2)F + H_(2)SO_(4) + H_(2)O overset("heat")to............... + 5CaSO_(4).2H_(2)O + ............. (iii) SO_(2)(aq) + CrO_(7)^(2-) + 2H^(+) to ............... + ........... +........... (iv) Sn + 2KOH + 4H_(2)O to.......... + .......... (c ) Give reasons for the following: Although aluminium is above hydrogen in the electrochemical series, it is stable in air and water.

Answer»

Solution :(a) (iii)
(b) (i) `3MnO_(4)^(2-) + 4H^(-) to MnO_(2) + 2MnO_(4)^(-) + 2H_(2)O`
(b) (i) `3MnO_(4)^(2-) + 4H^(-) to MnO_(2) + 2MnO_(4)^(-) + 2H_(2)O`
(II) `Ca_(5)(PO_(4))_(2)F+H_(2)SO_(4) + H_(2)O overset("heat")to H_(3)PO_(4) + 5CaSO_(4).2H_(2)O + HF`
(iii) `SO_(2)(aq) + CrO_(7)^(2) + 2H^(+) to SO_(4)^(2-) + 2Cr^(3+) + H_(2)O`
(IV) `SN + 2KOH + 4H_(2)O to K_(2)[Sn(OH)_(6)] + 2H_(2)`
(c ) Due to formation of oxide layer.
