PH3 forms bubbles when passed slowly through water but NH3 gets dissolved in water, because:
1. | NH3 forms an H-bond with water, so it is soluble but PH3 does not form an H-bond. |
2. | NH3 does not form an H-bond with water, so it is soluble but PH3 does form an H-bond. |
3. | NH3 and PH3 both form H-bond with water. |
4. | NH3 and PH3 both do not form H-bond with water. |
The bonding present in nitrogen molecules is:
1. \(p\pi-p\pi\)
2. \(p\pi-d\pi\)
3. \(d\pi-d\pi\)
4. Only sigma bond
NH3 forms a hydrogen bond but PH3 does not because:
1. | Phosphorus is more electronegative as compared to nitrogen. |
2. | Nitrogen is more electronegative as compared to phosphorus. |
3. | Nitrogen and phosphorous have equal electronegativity. |
4. | Nitrogen is more stable as compared to phosphorus. |

A brown-coloured mixture of two gases is obtained by reducing 6 N nitric acid with metallic copper. This mixture on cooling condenses to a blue liquid which on freezing (-30 oC) gives a blue solid. The correct statement for the blue liquid or solid is:
1. | It is referred to as the anhydride of nitrous acid. |
2. | It is an acidic oxide. Hence, it dissolves in alkalies producing nitrites. |
3. | It can also be prepared by the action of 50 % HNO3 on arsenious oxide and then cooling to 250 K. |
4. | All of the above. |
