Question

Ammonia burns with oxygen to give :
A) Nitrogen and water vapour
B) Nitrogen and steam
C) Both a and b
D) none

Answer 1

Hint:In the given question firstly we have to define the compound which is called Ammonia. The ammonia is the compound which is made of the elements of nitrogen and hydrogen. The chemical formula of ammonia is $N{H_3}$ .And the reaction would be
 \[4N{H_3} + 3{O_2} \to 2{N_2} + 6{H_2}O\]


Complete solution:
The given question statement asks about the compound which is called as. Apart from that we also have to know how it will behave with the oxygen when it will burn along with it.
Now firstly when talking about the compound of Sulphur dioxide.
The ammonia is the compound which is made of the elements of nitrogen and hydrogen. The chemical formula of ammonia is $N{H_3}$ . It is also a very stable binary hydride. It is among the simplest pnictogen hydride.
Talking about the physical appearance we get that ammonia is a colourless gas with a characteristic pungent smell. It is also a common nitrogenous waste, particularly among aquatic organisms. It also is known to contribute significantly to the nutritional needs of terrestrial organisms by serving as a precursor to food and fertilizers.
Therefore the chemical reaction of the reaction would be:
\[4N{H_3} + 3{O_2} \to 2{N_2} + 6{H_2}O\]
Ammonia burns with oxygen to give water vapour or steam.

Therefore the right option among the following would be option C.


Note:Ammonia is a chemical found in trace quantities in nature, being produced from nitrogenous animal and vegetable matter. Ammonia and ammonium salts are also found in small quantities in rainwater, whereas ammonium chloride (sal ammoniac), and ammonium sulfate are found in volcanic districts; crystals of ammonium bicarbonate have been found in Patagonia guano.
