Upon reacting with ammonia, chlorine is reduced to hydrogen chloride.
(b) (i) What are the products formed when ammonia is oxidized with copper oxide? (ii) Name one lead compound that can be used to oxidize hydrogen chloride to chlorine.
give balanced equations by partial equation method
reaction of excesss ammonia with chlorine -ammonia as a reducing agent-
1.ammonia first reacts with chlorine to give hydrogen chloride and nitrogen.
2.hydrogen chloride then further reacts with excesss ammonia to give ammonium chloride.
When chlorine reacts with ammonia , it is reduced to X, which further combines with excess of ammonia to form Y. Name this Y.
