The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze the given chemical reactions and identify the products W, X, and Y, along with their uses. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Analyzing the First Reaction:** \[ \text{NaCl} + \text{H}_2\text{O} + \text{CO}_2 + \text{NH}_3 \rightarrow \text{NH}_4\text{Cl} + W \] - Here, we have sodium chloride (NaCl), water (H₂O), carbon dioxide (CO₂), and ammonia (NH₃) reacting to form ammonium chloride (NH₄Cl) and another product W. - The product W can be identified as sodium carbonate (Na₂CO₃) because the reaction involves the combination of NaCl and CO₂ in the presence of NH₃ and water. **Hint:** Look for common products formed when sodium compounds react with carbon dioxide and ammonia. 2. **Analyzing the Second Reaction:** \[ \text{Ca(OH)}_2 + \text{Cl}_2 \rightarrow X + \text{H}_2\text{O} \] - Calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)₂) reacts with chlorine (Cl₂) to produce a product X and water. - The product X is calcium oxychloride (Ca(OCl)₂), which is commonly known as bleaching powder. **Hint:** Chlorine reacts with calcium hydroxide to produce bleaching agents. 3. **Analyzing the Third Reaction:** \[ 2\text{NaCl} + 2\text{H}_2\text{O} \rightarrow Y + \text{Cl}_2 + \text{H}_2 \] - In this reaction, sodium chloride (NaCl) and water (H₂O) produce chlorine gas (Cl₂) and hydrogen gas (H₂), along with another product Y. - The product Y is sodium hydroxide (NaOH), which is a strong base. **Hint:** Sodium chloride and water can produce sodium hydroxide through electrolysis. 4. **Identifying Uses of Products:** - **W (Sodium Carbonate, Na₂CO₃):** Used as an ingredient in antacids to neutralize stomach acidity. - **X (Calcium Oxychloride, Ca(OCl)₂):** Used as a bleaching agent in various applications. - **Y (Sodium Hydroxide, NaOH):** Used in paper making and various industrial processes. ### Conclusion: The correct uses of products W, X, and Y are: - W (Sodium Carbonate) - Used in antacids. - X (Calcium Oxychloride) - Used as a bleaching agent. - Y (Sodium Hydroxide) - Used in paper making. Thus, the answer is that option 2 is correct, as it matches the uses of the products derived from the reactions.
