(ii) Sodium chlorate reacts with sulphur dioxide in dilute sulphuric acid medium.
Show Answer
Solution:
- (i) $\underset{\text{hypophosphorus acid}}{2 \mathrm{H}_3 \mathrm{PO}_2} \quad \xrightarrow{\Delta} \mathrm{PH}_3+\mathrm{H}_3 \mathrm{PO}_4$ (Disproportionation)
(ii) $\mathrm{NaClO}_3+\mathrm{SO}_2 \xrightarrow{10 \mathrm{H}^{+}} \mathrm{NaCl}+\mathrm{S}+5 \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}$
