‘Metals are usually not found as nitrates in their ores’. Out of the following two (a and b) reasons, which is/are true for the above observation?(a) Metal nitrates are highly unstable.(b) Metal nitrates are highly soluble in water.
(a) and (b) are false
(a) is false but (b) is true
(a) is true but (b) is false
(a) and (b) are true
To solve this problem, we need to evaluate the given reasons for why metals are usually not found as nitrates in their ores.Let's analyze each reason:(a) Metal nitrates are highly unstable.• Metal nitrates are generally stable compounds. They are not considered highly unstable.• Therefore, reason (a) is false.(b) Metal nitrates are highly soluble in water.• Metal nitrates are indeed highly soluble in water. This is a well-known property of nitrates.
