Q1 FREE PREVIEW

Given below are two statements :
Statement-I : Methane and steam passed over a heated Ni catalyst produces hydrogen gas.
Statement-II : Sodium nitrite reacts with \(\mathrm{NH}_4 \mathrm{Cl}\) to give \(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}, \mathrm{N}_2\) and \(\mathrm{NaCl}\).
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :

[JEE Main 2023, 11 Apr (Shift 1)]

a

Both the statements I and II are correct

b

Both the statements I and II are incorrect

c

Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct

d

Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect

✓ Correct answer: a)

Both the statements I and II are correct

Explanation

\(C{H}_{4}(g)+{H}_{2}O(g)\overset{Ni\text{-catalyst }}{\underset{\Delta }{\to }}\underset{\text{(water gas) }}{\underset{⏟}{CO(g)+3{H}_{2}(g)}}\)

\(NaN{O}_{2}(aq)+N{H}_{4}Cl(aq)⟶NaC{l}_{(aq)}+N{H}_{4}N{O}_{2}\)

\(N{H}_{4}N{O}_{2}⟶{N}_{2}(g)+2{H}_{2}O(ℓ)\)
