A dark violet solid X reacts with `NH_3` to form a mild explosive which decomposes to give a violet coloured gas. X also reacts with `H_2` to give an acid Y. Y can also be prepared by heating its salt with `H_3PO_4`. X and Y are
A. `Cl_2`, HCl
B. `SO_2 , H_2SO_4`
C. `Br_2`, HBr
D. `I_2 , HI`

Correct Answer - D
The reaction involved are `3I_2 + 2NH_3 to NI_3. NH_3` (Explosive) + 3HI
`8NI_3. NH_3 overset("Decomposes")to5N_2 + underset("Violet gas")(9I_2uarr)+6NH_4I`
`I_2 + H_2 overset("Pt/710 K")to2HI`
`3NaI + H_3PO_4 to Na_3PO_4 + 3HI`
