The reaction of $HClO _3$ with $HCl$ gives a paramagnetic gas, which upon reaction with $O _3$ produces
- $Cl _2 O$
- $Cl _2 O$
- $Cl _2 O _6$
- $Cl _2 O _7$
The Correct Option is C
Approach Solution - 1
The correct option is (C): \(Cl _2 O _6\)
Approach Solution -2
When chloric acid (\(HClO_3\)) reacts with hydrochloric acid (\(HCl\)), it forms chlorine dioxide (\(ClO_2\)), which is a paramagnetic gas. The balanced reaction is:
\[ HClO_3 + HCl \rightarrow ClO_2 + Cl_2 + H_2O \]
Chlorine dioxide (\(ClO_2\)) can react further with ozone (\(O_3\)). The reaction of \(ClO_2\) with \(O_3\) can produce dichlorine hexoxide (\(Cl_2O_6\)).
The balanced chemical equation for the reaction of chlorine dioxide with ozone is:
\[ 2ClO_2 + 2O_3 \rightarrow Cl_2O_6 + 2O_2 \]
So, the paramagnetic gas \(ClO_2\) reacts with ozone to produce dichlorine hexoxide (\(Cl_2O_6\)).
The correct Answer is option is (C):\(Cl_2O_6\)

Questions Asked in JEE Advanced exam
A temperature difference can generate e.m.f. in some materials. Let $ S $ be the e.m.f. produced per unit temperature difference between the ends of a wire, $ \sigma $ the electrical conductivity and $ \kappa $ the thermal conductivity of the material of the wire. Taking $ M, L, T, I $ and $ K $ as dimensions of mass, length, time, current and temperature, respectively, the dimensional formula of the quantity $ Z = \frac{S^2 \sigma}{\kappa} $ is:

P-Block Elements
- P block elements are those in which the last electron enters any of the three p-orbitals of their respective shells. Since a p-subshell has three degenerate p-orbitals each of which can accommodate two electrons, therefore in all there are six groups of p-block elements.
- P block elements are shiny and usually a good conductor of electricity and heat as they have a tendency to lose an electron. You will find some amazing properties of elements in a P-block element like gallium. It’s a metal that can melt in the palm of your hand. Silicon is also one of the most important metalloids of the p-block group as it is an important component of glass.
P block elements consist of:
- Group 13 Elements: Boron family
- Group 14 Elements: Carbon family
- Group 15 Elements: Nitrogen family
- Group 16 Elements: Oxygen family
- Group 17 Elements: Fluorine family
- Group 18 Elements: Neon family
