When dry silver chloride is fused with sodium carbonate, we get pure :

A

free metal

B

`Ag_2C_2`

C

`Ag_2O`

D

`Ag_2CO_3`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`Ag_2CO_3` and `Ag_2O` are thermally unstable and decompose to give free silver on heating `Ag_2C_2`. Silver carbide, is formed when acetylene is passed through `AgNO_3` soln. and not in the reaction.
