There are some deposits of nitrated and phosphates in the earth's crust. Nitrates are more soluble in water. Nitrates are difficult to reduce under laboratory conditions but microbes do it easily. Ammonia forms a large number of complexes with transition metal ions. Hybridisation easily explains the ease of sigma donation capability of NH_3 and PH_3 . Phosphine is a flammable gas and is prepared from white phosphorous. White phosphorous on reaction with NaOH gives PH_3 as one of the products. This is a.

Asseration: NH_(3) and PH_(3) differ from each other in their reaction with CuSO_(4) or AgNO_(3) . Reason: PH_(3) acts as oxidising agent in these reacrion but NH_(30 not.
