Which of the following metal produces $N_2O$ on reaction with $20\%\  HNO_3$ 

A

$Sn$

B

$Pt$

C

$Zn$

D

$Pb$

Solution

$Fe$ and $Zn$ produces $N _2 O$ gas with $20 \,\%\, HNO _3$

$M +$ dil. $HNO _3\,(20\, \%) \,\rightarrow M \left( NO _3\right)_2+ N _2 O$

where, $M$ is metals which are more electropositive than hydrogen except $Sn$ and $Pb$.

$Sn +\operatorname{dil} . HNO _3 (20 \,\%) \rightarrow Sn \left( NO _3\right)_2+ NH _4 NO _3$
