IONIC 1

JEE Advanced 2015 Answers › Physical Chemistry questions › IONIC 1

Consider the following reactions in aqueous medium :
A : H₂CO₃ (aq) + HSO₄^-(aq) â†’ H₂SO₄(aq) + HCO₃^-(aq)

B : HF(aq) + Cl^- (aq) â†’ HCl(aq) + F^- (aq)

C : HF(aq) + NH₃(aq) â†’ NH₄⁺ + F^-

D : HSO₄^- + CN^- â†’ HCN + SO₄^2-

Reactions proceeding to the right are option(s) ____________ .

Ans: C and D

Reason ? Why not A and B ?

H₂CO₃ cannot be isolated to react thus.

F^- cannot be replaced. (agreed with Manmay)

Can someone justify C???
