Solution

(i) Oxidation of ammonia with copper oxide results in the formation of copper, nitrogen (gas) and water. The equation is as follows:

2NH3 + 3CuO → 3Cu + N2↑ + 3H2O

(ii) Both lead dioxide and trilead tetroxide can be used to oxidise hydrogen chloride to chlorine. The equation for both the reactions are as follows:

PbO2 + 4HCl → PbCl2 + 2H2O + Cl2
Pb3O4 + 8HCl → 3PbCl2 + 4H2O + Cl2
