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 the transfer of electrons, resulting in changes in oxidation states of the reactants. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Compounds**: The compounds given are: - PbCl₄ (Lead(IV) chloride) - Mg(NO₃)₂ (Magnesium nitrate) - HgC₂O₄ (Mercury(II) oxalate) - Ag₂CO₃ (Silver carbonate) - Pb(CN)₄ (Lead(IV) cyanide) - Al(OH)₃ (Aluminum hydroxide) - Cu(CN)₂ (Copper(I) cyanide) 2. **Analyze Each Compound**: - **PbCl₄**: On heating, it decomposes to PbCl₂ + Cl₂. - Oxidation states: Pb goes from +4 to +2 (reduction), Cl goes from -1 to 0 (oxidation). - **Redox Reaction**: Yes. - **Mg(NO₃)₂**: On heating, it decomposes to MgO + NO₂ + O₂. - Oxidation states: Mg stays at +2, N goes from +5 to +4 (reduction), O goes from -2 to 0 (oxidation). - **Redox Reaction**: Yes. - **HgC₂O₄**: On heating, it decomposes to Hg + CO₂. - Oxidation states: Hg goes from +2 to 0 (reduction), C goes from +3 to +4 (oxidation). - **Redox Reaction**: Yes. - **Ag₂CO₃**: On heating, it decomposes to Ag + CO₂ + ½ O₂. - Oxidation states: Ag goes from +1 to 0 (reduction), O goes from -2 to 0 (oxidation). - **Redox Reaction**: Yes. - **Pb(CN)₄**: On heating, it decomposes to Pb(CN)₂ + CN₂. - Oxidation states: Pb goes from +4 to +2 (reduction), CN goes from -1 to 0 (oxidation). - **Redox Reaction**: Yes. - **Al(OH)₃**: On heating, it decomposes to Al₂O₃ + H₂O. - Oxidation states: Al stays at +3, O stays at -2, H stays at +1. - **Redox Reaction**: No. - **Cu(CN)₂**: On heating, it decomposes to CuCN + CN₂. - Oxidation states: Cu goes from +2 to +1 (reduction), CN goes from -1 to 0 (oxidation). - **Redox Reaction**: Yes. 3. **Count the Redox Reactions**: - The compounds that undergo redox reactions upon heating are: 1. PbCl₄ 2. Mg(NO₃)₂ 3. HgC₂O₄ 4. Ag₂CO₃ 5. Pb(CN)₄ 6. Cu(CN)₂ - Total number of compounds that undergo redox reactions = 6. ### Final Answer: **Total number of compounds which on heating undergo redox reactions: 6**
