Chlorous acid is weak inorganic acid. In this acid, chlorine has oxidation number +3.
B) HNO₂ is nitrous acid.
Nitrous acid is a weak monobasic acid. In this acid, nitrogen has oxidation number +3.
D) HI is hydroiodic acid.
Hydroiodic acid is a highly acidic aqueous solution of hydrogen iodide. In this acid, iodine has oxidation number -1.
Answer:
c) parallel to the wire
Explanation:
The concept is based on right-hand thumb rule that states that the thumb points in the direction of the current and the fingers will represent the direction of the lines of magnetic force.
As the current is moving in the east-west direction. Using the right-hand thumb rule, the direction of the magnetic field at a point below the wire is from north to south. So, when viewed from the west end, the magnetic field at a point will be anti- clockwise.
Hence, the correct answer is "b) anti- clockwise".
