Which of the following is correct statement about interstitial compounds? |
Interstitial compounds are formed by small atoms such as C, N, H, B etc. These compounds are nonstoichiometric. They show difference in physical properties but similarity in chemical properties. All of these. |
All of these. |
Transition metals have unique ability to react with small atoms of nonmetals (Hydrogen, Carbon, Nitrogen) to produce interstitial compounds. These compounds are hard and rigid. These compounds are nonstoichiometric in nature and do not follow the common rule of valency. They show difference in physical properties but similarity in chemical properties. |
