A compound contains nitrogen and a metal. This compound goes through a combustion reaction such that compound X is produced from
the nitrogen atoms and compound Y is produced from the metal atoms in the reactant. What are the compounds X and Y? X is nitrogen dioxide, and Y is a metal halide. X is nitrogen dioxide, and Y is a metal oxide. X is nitrogen gas, and Y is a metal sulfate. X is nitrogen gas, and Y is a metal oxide.
The correct answer is: X is nitrogen dioxide, and Y is a metal oxide
Explanation:
Combustion of compound of containing nitrogen and metal will give nitrogen dioxide and metal oxide as product. During combustion reaction a compound reacts with oxygen in order to yield oxides of elements present in the compound.
The general equation is given as:
Hence, the correct answer is :X is nitrogen dioxide, and Y is a metal oxide.
Explanation : Any substance that yields a hydrogen ion when placed in a water solution is called an acid. According to Arrhenius theory of Acids and Bases, Acids are those substances which on dissociation in solution generates ions. Whereas a Base is a substance that dissociates in the solution to produce ions.
