On heating lead (II) nitrate gives a brown gas “A”. The gas “A” on cooling changes to colourless solid “B”. Solid “B” on heating with NO changes to a blue solid ‘C’. Identify ‘A’, ‘B’ and ‘C’ and also write reactions involved and draw the structures of ‘B’ and ‘C’.
Assertion: Nitrogen and oxygen are the main components in the atmosphere but these do not react to form oxides of nitrogen.
Reason: The reaction between nitrogen and oxygen requires high temperature.
