Current Question (ID: 10588)

Question:
$\text{A compound 'X', upon reaction with } \text{H}_2\text{O}, \text{ produces a colourless gas 'Y' with a rotten fish smell. Gas 'Y' is absorbed in a solution of } \text{CuSO}_4 \text{ to give } \text{Cu}_3\text{P}_2 \text{ as one of the products. The compound 'X' will be:}$
Options:
  • 1. $\text{Ca}_3\text{P}_2$ (Correct)
  • 2. $\text{NH}_4\text{Cl}$
  • 3. $\text{As}_2\text{O}_3$
  • 4. $\text{Ca}_3(\text{PO}_4)_2$
Solution:
$\text{Hint: Reaction of phosphide with water to produce phosphine & Chemical properties of phosphine}$ $\text{Explanation:}$ $\text{Doing hydrolysis of calcium phosphide with water or dil. HCl.}$ $\text{Ca}_3\text{P}_2 \text{ (X) } + 6\text{H}_2\text{O} \rightarrow 3\text{Ca(OH)}_2 + 2\text{PH}_3 \text{ (Y)}$ $\text{When phosphine is passed through copper sulphate solution, a black precipitate of cupric phosphide is formed.}$ $\text{CuSO}_4 + 2\text{PH}_3 \rightarrow \text{Cu}_3\text{P}_2 + 3\text{H}_2\text{SO}_4$ $\text{Hence, option 1 is the correct answer}$
