  •  \(\left(\mathrm{CH}_3\right)_3 \mathrm{BO}_3\)
  •  \(\left(C_2 \mathrm{H}_5\right)_3 \mathrm{BO}_3\)
  •  \(\mathrm{H}_3 \mathrm{BO}_3\)
  •  \(\mathrm{(C_2 H_5)_3 \mathrm{BO}_4}\)
Q2.

What chemical changes occur when Mohr’s salt is strongly heated?

  • It decomposes into ferric oxide and ammonia gas.
  • It sublimes directly into ferrous sulfateย and ammonium sulfate.
  • It forms a complex with water molecules.
  • It undergoes a reversible reaction to form ferrous hydroxide and ammonium sulfide.
