The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the better method for the preparation of beryllium fluoride (BeF₂), we will analyze the given reactions and identify the most efficient one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Compounds**: - We need to prepare beryllium fluoride (BeF₂). - Beryllium (Be) is a metal, and fluoride (F) is derived from fluorine. 2. **Analyzing the Given Reactions**: - We have four reactions to consider, but we will focus on the third reaction as mentioned in the video transcript. 3. **Identifying the Third Reaction**: - The third reaction involves the thermal decomposition of ammonium fluoride (NH₄F) to produce beryllium fluoride (BeF₂) and other products. - The reaction can be represented as: \[ 2 \text{NH}_4\text{F} + \text{Be} \rightarrow \text{BeF}_2 + \text{other products} \] 4. **Balancing the Reaction**: - To ensure the reaction is balanced, we need to confirm that the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the equation. - For this reaction, we can balance it as follows: \[ 2 \text{NH}_4\text{F} \rightarrow \text{BeF}_2 + \text{other products} \] - Here, we see that we have 2 nitrogen (N), 8 hydrogen (H), and 2 fluorine (F) on the left side, which balances with the products. 5. **Conclusion**: - The thermal decomposition of ammonium fluoride is an effective method to produce beryllium fluoride. - Therefore, the better method for the preparation of BeF₂ is the third option. ### Final Answer: The better method for the preparation of BeF₂ is the third reaction involving the thermal decomposition of ammonium fluoride. ---
