Collagen in the human body connects and supports bodily tissue such as skin, bones, muscles and cartilage. It supports the internal organs and can even be found in teeth! Collagen's main function is to sustain tendons, skin, and cartilage and provide firmness and elasticity to those structures.

Which of the following yields a basic solution when dissolved in water? I. Nh3 ii. Na2o iii. Lioh iv. P4o10

emmainna [20.7K]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option 1, Option 2 and Option 3.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A base is defined as the substance which releases hydroxide ion when dissolved in water.

For the given options:

<u>Option 1:</u> $NH_3$

When ammonia is dissolved in water, it produces ammonium hydroxide which forms a basic solution.

$NH_3+H_2O\rightarrow NH_4OH$

<u>Option 2:</u> $Na_2O$

When sodium oxide is dissolved in water, it produces ammonium hydroxide which forms a basic solution.

$Na_2O+H_2O\rightarrow 2NaOH$

<u>Option 3:</u> $LiOH$

When lithium hydroxide is dissolved in water, it produces aqueous lithium hydroxide which forms a basic solution.

$LiOH+H_2O\rightarrow LiOH(aq.)$

<u>Option 4:</u> $P_4O_{10}$

When phosphorus pentoxide is dissolved in water, it produces phosphoric acid which forms an acidic solution.

$P_4O_{10}+6H_2O\rightarrow 4H_3PO_4$

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1, Option 2 and Option 3.
