Q19 / 90 · JEE Main 2021 (24 Feb Shift 1) · Chemistry

Al2O3 was leached with alkali to get X. The solution of X on passing of gas Y, forms Z.

X,Y and Z respectively are

  • A
    X=AlOH3,Y=CO2', Z=Al2O3
  • B
    X=NaAlOH4,Y=SO2, Z=Al2O3
  • C
    X=AlOH3, Y=SO2, Z=Al2O3·xH2O
  • Correct answer
    D
    X=NaAlOH4, Y=CO2, Z=Al2O3, xH2O

Solution

Figure

(1) Al2O3+NaOH⟶NaAl(OH)4"X"

(2) NaAl(OH)4→"Y"CO2Al(OH)3"Z" or Al2O3·xH2O

So, when Al2O3 was leached with alkali to get X. The solution of X on passing of gas Y, forms Z.

X,Y and Z respectively are

X:NaAlOH4

Y:CO2

Z:Al2O3·xH2O

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
