The incorrect statement among the following regarding helium is -
1. It is used to produce and sustain powerful superconducting magnets.
2. It is used as a cryogenic agent for carrying out experiments at low temperatures.
3. It is used in filling balloons for meteorological observations because it is lighter and non-inflammable.
4. It is used as a dilute for oxygen in modern diving apparatus because of its high solubility in blood.
Assertion : is not known probably because of the oxidising power of Pb(IV) and reducing power of .
Reason : Iodide stabilizes higher oxidation state.
Assertion : is not used to dry .
Reason : is acidic and is basic.
Assertion : is stronger acid than .
Reason : In there are two nitrogen to oxygen bonds where as in there is only one.
Assertion : oxides sulphur to acid ( S + VI) but only oxidizes selenium to ( Se + IV ).
Reason : In Selenium atoms, the electrons are more tightly held by the nucleus on account of increased nuclear charge.
Assertion : Sulphur dioxide is more powerful reducing agent in alkaline medium than in acidic
medium.
Reason : Sulphur dioxide reacts with hydrogen sulphide in presence of moisture and sulphur is
precipitated.
Assertion : is used as a gaseous insulator in high voltage generators.
Reason : It is inert and has good dielectric properties.
Assertion : Finely divided iron does not form ferric chloride with hydrochloric acid.
Reason : Hydrochloric acid produces hydrogen gas with iron.
Assertion : reacts with small quantity of water to form .
Reason : reacts with glass and form .

1. XeOF4
2. NeF2
3. XeF2
4. XeF6
