In the following reaction sequence, the compound C is
Al+N2ΔAH2OBppt+Cg
MEDIUM
A metal X dissolves both in dilute HCl and dilute NaOH to liberate H2. Addition of NH4Cl and excess NH4OH to an HCl solution of X produces Y as a precipitate. Y is also produced by adding NH4Cl to the NaOH solution of X. The species X and Y, respectively, are
EASY
Taking stability as the factor, which one of the following represent the correct relationship?
MEDIUM
Sodium borohydride upon treatment with iodine produces a Lewis acid (X), which on heating with ammonia produces a cyclic compound Y and a colorless gas Z. X, Y and Z are
MEDIUM
When metal M is treated with NaOH, a white gelatinous precipitate X is obtained, which is soluble in excess of NaOH. Compound X when heated strongly gives an oxide which is used in chromatography as an adsorbent. The metal M is
