$2 LiNO_3 \rightarrow 2 LiNO_2 + O_2$

Vedclass · Answer

(B) Lithium nitrate $(LiNO_3)$ is unique among alkali metal nitrates because it decomposes upon heating to form lithium oxide $(Li_2O)$, nitrogen dioxide $(NO_2)$, and oxygen $(O_2)$.Other alkali metal nitrates like sodium nitrate $(NaNO_3)$ decompose to form the corresponding nitrite $(NaNO_2)$ and oxygen $(O_2)$.Therefore, the reaction $2 LiNO_3 \rightarrow 2 LiNO_2 + O_2$ is incorrect.
