NEET Chemistry (general) Match the Following Question

Type: Match the Following-match the column-Medium-Class 12

Match Column-I with Column-II.

Column-IColumn-II
(a) NH3(i) Weakest reducing agent
(b) PH3(ii) Strongest reducing agent
(c) BiH3(iii) Strong hydrogen bonding
(d) H2O(iv) No hydrogen bonding
A

a-iii, b-iv, c-ii, d-i

B

a-ii, b-iv, c-i, d-iii

C

a-iii, b-ii, c-i, d-iv

D

a-ii, b-iii, c-iv, d-i

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

NH3 exhibits strong hydrogen bonding, which raises its boiling point compared to PH3, which does not engage in hydrogen bonding (hence lower boiling point). BiH3 is the strongest reducing agent among Group 15 hydrides, while H2O has a weaker reducing property.
