3. A balanced chemical equation tells us that the total mass of elements present in the products of a chemical reaction is equal to the total mass of the elements present in the reactants. But it does not provide us information about some facts and then the reaction is made informative by adding additional information. Select the statement that does not make the chemical reaction more informative.
(a) Physical state of reactants and products are written along with them.
High difficulty Os, adapted from well-known reference books.
(b) The reaction conditions under which the reaction takes place are written.
(c) To balance a chemical reaction, coefficient is always written infront of the formula.
(d) Heat changes accompanying the chemical reaction are written.
4. On heating a blue-coloured powder of copper (II) nitrate in a boiling tube, a black substance X, oxygen gas and a brown gas Y was formed. Select the option which identifies the products correctly:
