Which of the following reactions does not exhibit the oxidising behaviour of H2SO4?
1. Cu + 2H2SO4 → CuSO4 + SO2 + 2H2O
2. 3S + 2H2SO4 → 3SO2 + 2H2O
3. C + 2H2SO4 → CO2 + 2SO2 + 2H2O
4. CaF2 + H2SO4 → CaSO4 + 2HF
The strong reducing behaviour of H3PO2 is due to:
1. Presence of one -OH group and two P-H bonds.
2. High electron gain enthalpy of phosphorus.
3. High oxidation state of phosphorus.
4. Presence of two -OH groups and one P-H bond.

Phosphine can not be produced by the following reaction:
1. White P is heated with NaOH.
2. Red P is heated with NaOH.
3. Ca3P2 is heated with water.
4. Phosphorus trioxide is boiled with water.
In the nitrogen family, the H-M-H bond angle in the hybrides MH3 gradually becomes closer to 90o if we move from N to Sb. This shows that gradually
1. | The basic strength of hybrides increases. |
2. | Pure p-orbitals (almost) are used for M-H bonding. |
3. | The bond energies of the M-H bond increase. |
4. | The bond pairs of electrons become nearer to the central atom. |
