Q. Reaction of HNO_{3} with I, S, P and C gives respectively
A) HIO_{3,} H_{2}SO_{4,} H_{3}PO_{4} and CO_{2}
B) HIO_{3,} H_{2}SO_{4,} H_{3}PO_{3} and CO_{2}
C) HIO_{2,} H_{2}SO_{4,} H_{3}PO_{4} and CO
D) I_{2}O_{5}, SO_{2}, P_{2}O and CO_{2}
Explanation
(a)
I_{2}+10 HNO_{3}$\overset{\mathrm{\Delta}}{\rightarrow}$2HIO_{3}+10NO_{2}+4H_{2}O
S+6 HNO_{3}$\overset{\mathrm{\Delta}}{\rightarrow}$ H_{2}SO_{4}+6NO_{2}+2H_{2}O
P_{4}+20 HNO_{3}$\overset{\mathrm{\Delta}}{\rightarrow}$4 H_{3}PO_{4}+20NO_{2}+4H_{2}O
C+4 HNO_{3}$\overset{\mathrm{\Delta}}{\rightarrow}$CO_{2}+4NO_{2}+2H_{2}O
