Question:

Complete the reaction

\(NH_2CONH_2 + H_2O \longrightarrow\)

Options:

\(NO, H_2O, CO\)

\(N_2O, CO_2, H_2O\)

\(HNO_3, CO_2\)

\(NH_3, CO_2, H_2O\)

Correct Answer:

\(NH_3, CO_2, H_2O\)

Explanation:

The correct answer is 4. \(NH_3, CO_2, H_2O\).

The hydrolysis of urea \((NH_2CONH_2)\) with water results in the formation of ammonia \((NH_3)\), carbon dioxide \((CO_2)\), and water \((H_2O)\). The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is:

\(NH_2CONH_2 + 2H_2O \longrightarrow 2 NH_3 + CO_2 + H_2O\)
