    Phosphine is obtained by (1) \[C{{a}_{3}}{{P}_{2}}+{{H}_{2}}O\xrightarrow{{}}\] (2) \[{{P}_{4}}+NaOH\xrightarrow{{}}\] (3) \[CHC{{l}_{3}}+{{O}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}\] (4) \[CC{{l}_{4}}+{{O}_{2}}\xrightarrow{{}}\]

    A)  1, 2 and 3 are correct.

    B)  1 and 2 are correct.

    C)  2 and 4 are correct.

    D)  1 and 3 are correct.

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                     Phosphine is obtained either by treating calcium phosphite with water or by treating white phosphorus with alkali. \[\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  \,\,\,calcium \\  phosphite \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C{{a}_{3}}{{P}_{2}}}}\,+6{{H}_{2}}O\xrightarrow{{}}\underset{phosphine}{\mathop{2P{{H}_{3}}}}\,+3Ca{{(OH)}_{2}}\] \[\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  \,\,\,\,\,white \\  phosphorus \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{{{P}_{4}}+}}\,3NaOH+3{{H}_{2}}O\xrightarrow{Warm}\underset{phosphine}{\mathop{P{{H}_{3}}}}\,\] \[+3Na{{H}_{2}}P{{O}_{2}}\]
