Extra pure \(\mathrm{N}_2\) can be obtained by heating

  1. A \(\mathrm{NH}_3\) with \(\mathrm{CuO}\)
  2. B \(\mathrm{NH}_4 \mathrm{NO}_4\)
  3. C \(\left(\mathrm{NH}_4\right)_2 \mathrm{Cr}_2 \mathrm{O}_7\)
  4. D \(\mathrm{Ba}\left(\mathrm{N}_3\right)_2\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\mathrm{Ba}\left(\mathrm{N}_3\right)_2\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{Ba}\left(\mathrm{N}_3\right)_2 \stackrel{\text { Heat }}{\longrightarrow} \mathrm{Ba}(\mathrm{s})+3 \mathrm{~N}_2(\mathrm{~g})\)
Azide salt of barium can be obtained in purest form as well as the decomposition product contain solid \(\mathrm{Ba}\) as byproduct along with gaseous nitrogen, hence no additional step of separation is required.
Other reactions are:
\(\text{NH} _4 \text{NO} _3 \xrightarrow{\text {Heat}}\text N _2\text O +2\text H _2\text O \)
\( 2\text{NH} _3+3 \text{CuO} \xrightarrow{\text {Heat}} 3 \text{Cu} +3\text H _2\text O +\text N _2 \)
\( \left(\text{NH} _4\right)_2 \text{Cr} _2\text O _7 \xrightarrow{\text {Heat}} \text{Cr} _2\text O _3+4\text H _2 O\text + \text N _2\)
