The correct Answer is:
To determine the total number of compounds that undergo redox reactions upon heating from the given list, we will analyze each compound one by one. A redox reaction involves both oxidation (loss of electrons) and reduction (gain of electrons). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Analyze PbCl4:** - Decomposes to PbCl2 + Cl2. - Oxidation states: Pb (from +4 to +2) undergoes reduction, Cl (from -1 to 0) undergoes oxidation. - **Conclusion:** This is a redox reaction. 2. **Analyze Mg(NO3)2:** - Decomposes to MgO + NO2 + O2. - Oxidation states: Mg (remains +2), N (from +5 to +4) undergoes reduction, O (from -2 to 0) undergoes oxidation. - **Conclusion:** This is a redox reaction. 3. **Analyze HgC2O4:** - Decomposes to Hg + CO2. - Oxidation states: Hg (from +2 to 0) undergoes reduction, C (from +3 to +4) undergoes oxidation. - **Conclusion:** This is a redox reaction. 4. **Analyze Ag2CO3:** - Decomposes to Ag + CO2 + O2. - Oxidation states: Ag (from +1 to 0) undergoes reduction, O (from -2 to 0) undergoes oxidation. - **Conclusion:** This is a redox reaction. 5. **Analyze Pb(CN)4:** - Decomposes to Pb(CN)2 + CN2. - Oxidation states: Pb (from +4 to +2) undergoes reduction, CN (from -1 to 0) undergoes oxidation. - **Conclusion:** This is a redox reaction. 6. **Analyze Al(OH)3:** - Decomposes to Al2O3 + H2O. - Oxidation states: Al remains +3, O remains -2, H remains +1. No change in oxidation states. - **Conclusion:** This is NOT a redox reaction. 7. **Analyze Cu(CN)2:** - Decomposes to Cu + CN2. - Oxidation states: Cu (from +2 to +1) undergoes reduction, CN (from -1 to 0) undergoes oxidation. - **Conclusion:** This is a redox reaction. ### Summary of Findings: - Compounds that undergo redox reactions: PbCl4, Mg(NO3)2, HgC2O4, Ag2CO3, Pb(CN)4, Cu(CN)2. - Total number of compounds undergoing redox reactions: **6**. ### Final Answer: The total number of compounds which on heating undergo redox reactions is **6**. ---
