During hydrate formation from aqueous solution, water can be associated in different forms. Indicate the wrong combination.
(i) Coordinated water - $${\left[ {Cr{{\left( {{H_2}O} \right)}_6}} \right]^{3 + }}3C{l^ - }$$
(ii) Interstitial water - $$BaC{l_2} \cdot 2{H_2}O$$
(iii) Hydrogen bonded water - $${\left[ {Cu{{\left( {{H_2}O} \right)}_4}} \right]^{2 + }}SO_4^{2 - } \cdot {H_2}O$$

The production of dihydrogen obtained from coal gasification can be increased by reacting carbon monoxide of syngas mixture with steam in presence of a catalyst iron chromate. What is this process called?
\[C{{O}_{\left( g \right)}}+{{H}_{2}}{{O}_{\left( g \right)}}\xrightarrow[\text{Catalyst}]{673\,K}\] $$C{O_{2\left( g \right)}} + {H_2}_{\left( g \right)}$$
This is called water gas shift reaction.
3.
In complex hydrides, hydride ions act as ligand and are coordinated to metal ions. These hydrides are good reducing agents. Which of the following hydrides is not a complex hydride?
$${\left( {Al{H_3}} \right)_n}$$ is a polymeric hydride like $${\left( {Be{H_2}} \right)_n},{\left( {Mg{H_2}} \right)_n},$$ etc.

When same amount of zinc is treated separately with excess of sulphuric acid and excess of sodium hydroxide solution the ratio of volumes of hydrogen evolved is
The amount of energy required to break $$H - H$$ bond of $$1\,mole$$ of hydrogen is $$436\,kJ\,mo{l^{ - 1}}.$$
$${H_{2\left( g \right)}} + 436\,kJ\,mo{l^{ - 1}} \to {H_{\left( g \right)}} + {H_{\left( g \right)}}$$
