        \[N{{H}_{3}}\]gas is dried over

    A)  \[CaO\]                              

    B) \[HN{{O}_{3}}\]

    C)  \[{{P}_{2}}{{O}_{5}}\]                   

    D)  \[CuS{{O}_{4}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    (i) \[\because \]\[N{{H}_{3}}\] reacts with\[{{P}_{2}}{{O}_{5}}\]or\[CaC{{l}_{2}}\]or cone. \[{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\] \[\therefore \]it cannot be dried over either of them. (ii)\[CuS{{O}_{4}}\]and\[HN{{O}_{3}}\]are not drying agent. \[\therefore \]\[N{{H}_{3}}\]can be dried over\[CaO\]only because it is a drying agent with which it does not react.
