The correct Answer is:
To analyze the reaction \( PH_4I + KOH \rightarrow \text{(gas)}(A) + \text{(salt)}(B) + H_2O \) and identify the incorrect statement, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the balanced chemical equation The reaction involves the interaction of phosphonium iodide (\( PH_4I \)) with potassium hydroxide (\( KOH \)). The products of this reaction can be identified as follows: 1. **Gas (A)**: The gas produced in this reaction is phosphine (\( PH_3 \)). 2. **Salt (B)**: The salt formed is potassium iodide (\( KI \)). 3. **Water**: Water is also produced in the reaction. Thus, the balanced equation can be written as: \[ PH_4I + KOH \rightarrow PH_3(g) + KI + H_2O \] ### Step 2: Analyze the statements Now we will evaluate the statements provided in the question to determine which one is incorrect. 1. **Statement A**: "PH3 is not an inflammable gas." - This statement is incorrect because phosphine (\( PH_3 \)) is indeed an inflammable gas. 2. **Statement B**: "KI is a salt of a strong acid and a strong base." - This statement is correct. Potassium iodide (\( KI \)) is formed from the strong acid HI and the strong base KOH. 3. **Statement C**: "PH3 follows Drago's rule." - This statement is correct. \( PH_3 \) has a lone pair on phosphorus, is from the third period, and the surrounding atoms (hydrogens) have lower electronegativity. 4. **Statement D**: "PH3 is a weaker base than NH3." - This statement is correct. Due to the larger size of phosphorus compared to nitrogen, \( PH_3 \) is indeed a weaker base than ammonia (\( NH_3 \)). ### Conclusion The only incorrect statement is **Statement A**: "PH3 is not an inflammable gas." ### Final Answer The incorrect statement is: **Statement A**. ---
