Verified Solution • 2025–26 Session moderate

Which of the following reaction is correct?

A $4 \mathrm{LiNO}_{3} \stackrel{\Delta}{\longrightarrow} 2 \mathrm{Li}_{2} \mathrm{O}+4 \mathrm{NO}_{2}+\mathrm{O}_{2}$
B $2 \mathrm{LiNO}_{3} \longrightarrow 2 \mathrm{Li}+2 \mathrm{NO}_{2}+\mathrm{O}_{2}$
C $4 \mathrm{LiNO}_{3} \stackrel{\Delta}{\longrightarrow} 2 \mathrm{Li}_{2} \mathrm{O}+2 \mathrm{~N}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{4}+\mathrm{O}_{2}$
D $2 \mathrm{LiNO}_{3} \stackrel{\Delta}{\longrightarrow} 2 \mathrm{NaNO}_{2}+\mathrm{O}_{2}$

Accepted Answer

$\mathrm{4LiNO_3}$ $\overset{Heat}{⟶}$ $\mathrm{2Li_2O+4NO_2+O_2}$

$\mathrm{LiNO_3}$ on heating produces $\mathrm{Li_2O,NO_2}$ and $\mathrm{O_2}$
