Vedclass · Answer

(C) Metals that form nitrides react with moisture to release ammonia $(NH_3)$ gas,which has a characteristic pungent smell.$1$. $Mg$ (Group $2$) forms $Mg_3N_2$,which reacts with water: $Mg_3N_2 + 6H_2O 	o 3Mg(OH)_2 + 2NH_3 \uparrow$.$2$. $Ca$ (Group $2$) forms $Ca_3N_2$,which reacts with water: $Ca_3N_2 + 6H_2O 	o 3Ca(OH)_2 + 2NH_3 \uparrow$.$3$. $Li$ (Group $1$) is the only alkali metal that forms a stable nitride $(Li_3N)$,which reacts with water: $Li_3N + 3H_2O 	o 3LiOH + NH_3 \uparrow$.$4$. $K$ (Group $1$) does not form a nitride under these conditions. Therefore,it does not produce ammonia gas upon reaction with moist air.Thus,the correct option is $C$.
