Fill in the blanks.
The high reactivity of fluorine is due to its ________ dissociation energy. Its shows only ________ oxidation state. It has ________ electron affinity than chlorine. Among all hydrogen halides boiling point is highest for ________ .
$${H_2}O + \mathop B\limits^0 {r_2} \to HO\mathop {Br}\limits^{ + 1} + H\mathop {Br}\limits^{ - 1} $$
Thus here oxidation number of $$Br$$ increases from 0 to +1 and also decreases from 0 to –1. Thus it is oxidised as well as reduced.

In the following sets of reactants which two sets best exhibit the amphoteric characters of $$A{l_2}{O_3}.\,x{H_2}O?$$
$$\eqalign{
& {\text{Set}}\,1{\text{:}}\,A{l_2}{O_3}.\,x{H_2}O\left( s \right)\,{\text{and}}\,O{H^ - }\left( {aq} \right) \cr
& {\text{Set}}\,{\text{2:}}\,A{l_2}{O_3}.\,x{H_2}O\left( s \right){\text{and}}\,{{\text{H}}_2}O\left( l \right) \cr
& {\text{Set}}\,{\text{3:}}\,A{l_2}{O_3}.\,x{H_2}O\left( s \right)\,{\text{and}}\,{H^ + }\left( {aq} \right) \cr
& {\text{Set}}\,{\text{4:}}\,A{l_2}{O_3}.\,x{H_2}O\left( s \right)\,{\text{and}}\,N{H_3}\left( {aq} \right) \cr} $$
Aluminium oxide is amphoteric oxide because it shows the properties of the both acidic and basic oxides. It reacts with both acids and bases to form salt and water.
$$\eqalign{
& A{l_2}{O_3}.\,x{H_2}O + 2NaOH \to NaAl{O_2} + {H_2}O \cr
& A{l_2}{O_3}.\,x{H_2}O + HCl \to AlC{l_3} + {H_2}O \cr} $$

Cane sugar on reaction with nitric acid gives
Both the methods (A) and (B) can be used. When passed through freezing mixture the $${P_2}{H_4}$$ present condenses and pure $$P{H_3}$$ is obtained.
When passed through $$HI,P{H_3}$$ is absorbed forming $$P{H_4}I.P{H_4}I$$ when treated with $$KOH\left( {aq} \right)$$ yields pure phosphine.
$$\eqalign{
& P{H_3} + HI \to P{H_4}I \cr
& P{H_4}I + KOH\left( {aq} \right) \to KI + {H_2}O + P{H_3} \uparrow \cr} $$
Orthophosphoric acid $$\left( {{H_3}P{O_4}} \right)$$ have the following structure
It is clear from the structure that it contains three replaceable hydrogen atoms, so it gives three $${H^ + }$$ $$ions$$ on dissolution in water. So, the basicity of $${{H_3}P{O_4}}$$ is three.
$${H_3}P{O_4} \to 3{H^ + } + PO_4^{3 - }$$
