The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to identify the tetra-atomic molecule (A), the dehydrating agent (B), and the diatomic gas (C) based on the given information. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Tetra-Atomic Molecule (A)**: - A tetra-atomic molecule consists of four atoms. The most common tetra-atomic molecules in chemistry are phosphorus (P4) and silane (SiH4). However, phosphorus (P4) is more relevant in this context as it is known to react with nitrogen oxides. **Hint**: Think about common tetra-atomic molecules and their chemical behavior. 2. **Reaction with Nitrogen Oxide (N2O)**: - The question states that the tetra-atomic molecule (A) reacts with nitrogen oxide (N2O). When phosphorus reacts with N2O, it forms phosphorus pentoxide (P4O10). **Hint**: Consider the products formed when phosphorus reacts with nitrogen oxides. 3. **Identify Substance (B)**: - The problem states that substance (B) is a dehydrating agent. Phosphorus pentoxide (P4O10) is a well-known dehydrating agent, used to remove water from substances. **Hint**: Recall common dehydrating agents in chemistry. 4. **Identify Substance (C)**: - The question indicates that substance (C) is a diatomic gas that shows almost inert behavior. Nitrogen (N2) is a diatomic gas that is known for its inertness due to the strong triple bond between the nitrogen atoms. **Hint**: Think about diatomic gases and their reactivity. 5. **Summarize the Findings**: - Based on the above steps, we conclude: - (A) is P4 (phosphorus) - (B) is P4O10 (phosphorus pentoxide) - (C) is N2 (nitrogen gas) 6. **Choose the Correct Option**: - Now, we need to match our findings with the options provided. The correct combination is: - A = P4 - B = P4O10 - C = N2 **Hint**: Compare your answers with the options given to find the correct match. ### Final Answer: - A = P4 (phosphorus) - B = P4O10 (phosphorus pentoxide) - C = N2 (nitrogen gas) The correct option is the one that lists A as P4, B as P4O10, and C as N2.
