Answer
N2
Reason — When ammonia gas is passed over buff yellow PbO, ammonia reduces heated lead monoxide to greyish metallic lead with the liberation of nitrogen gas.
2NH3 + 3PbO ⟶ 3Pb + 3H2O + N2 ↑

Three different solutions X (sodium chloride solution), Y (acetic acid) and Z (sugar solution) were used for electrolysis by a student. When the circuit was completed, he noticed that the bulb glowed in the electrolytic cell containing:
- X & Y
- Y & Z
- Z & X
- X, Y & Z
An element X has an electronic configuration 2, 2. The compound formed when X combines with oxygen is most likely to be:
- a compound with a low melting point.
- a gas that dissolves in water to form an electrolyte.
- a good conductor in both solid and molten state.
- an ionic solid.
