The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the given reactions and identify the compounds formed based on the atomic numbers of elements A and B. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Elements A and B:** - The atomic number of element A is 15, which corresponds to phosphorus (P). - The atomic number of element B is 8, which corresponds to oxygen (O). 2. **Write the Initial Reaction:** - The reaction given is \( A_x + yB_2 \) in limited air to form compound P. - Substituting the identified elements, we have \( P_x + yO_2 \) in limited air. 3. **Determine the Compound P:** - In limited air, phosphorus reacts with oxygen to form phosphorus oxides. The most common oxides are \( P_4O_6 \) and \( P_4O_{10} \). - For the reaction \( P_4 + 3O_2 \) in limited air, we get \( P_4O_6 \) as compound P. - Here, \( x = 4 \) and \( y = 3 \). 4. **Write the Second Reaction:** - The second reaction involves treating compound P with excess oxygen: \( P + zB_2 \) in excess air to form compound Q. - Substituting the identified compound, we have \( P_4O_6 + zO_2 \) in excess air. 5. **Determine the Compound Q:** - In excess air, \( P_4O_6 \) reacts to form \( P_4O_{10} \). - The balanced reaction is \( P_4O_6 + 2O_2 \rightarrow P_4O_{10} \), thus \( z = 2 \). 6. **Summarize the Values:** - From the reactions, we have: - \( x = 4 \) - \( y = 3 \) - \( z = 2 \) 7. **Check the Statements:** - **Statement A:** The \( O-P-O \) bond angle in Q is greater than in P. - Correct, as \( P_4O_{10} \) has double bonds which increase bond angles compared to \( P_4O_6 \). - **Statement B:** The \( P-O \) bond length in Q is less than in P. - Correct, as increased bond order (due to double bonds in \( P_4O_{10} \)) leads to shorter bond lengths. - **Statement C:** \( x + y + z = 9 \). - Correct, \( 4 + 3 + 2 = 9 \). - **Statement D:** Compound P is \( P_2O_5 \) and compound Q is \( P_4O_{10} \). - Incorrect, as compound P is \( P_4O_6 \). 8. **Final Conclusion:** - The correct statements are A, B, and C.

To solve the problem, we need to analyze the given reactions and identify the compounds formed based on the atomic numbers of elements A and B. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify Elements A and B:** - The atomic number of element A is 15, which corresponds to phosphorus (P). - The atomic number of element B is 8, which corresponds to oxygen (O). ...
