Q.24) Phosphazene is used as ----- in manufacture of silicones.
a) Catalyst
b) Oxidising agents
c) Reducing agents
d) Rigid plastic
Answers
Answer:
a) catalyst is the correct answer
Correct question:
Phosphorene is used as ----- in the manufacture of silicones.
a) Catalyst
b) Oxidizing agents
c) Reducing agents
d) Rigid plastic
Phosphorene is used as a) Catalyst in the manufacture of silicones.
a) Catalyst:
Phosphorene is a phosphorus-based two-dimensional material. The present invention is about new silicone-containing coating compositions with phosphorene catalysts
Explanation for incorrect answer:
b) Oxidizing agents:
An oxidizing agent is a substance that absorbs electrons. It is said to have been reduced because the oxidizing agent means to gain electrons. So this is the wrong answer.
c) Reducing agents:
A reducing agent is one of the reactants in an oxidation-reduction reaction that reduces the other reactant by releasing electrons. So this is the wrong answer.
d) Rigid plastic:
Rigid plastic is a material with no elastic deformation, perfect plastic deformation, and a somewhat rigid shape or form. So this is the wrong answer.
Hence, Phosphorene is used in the production of silicones as a) catalyst.
