Gradual addition of `KI` solution to `Bi(NO_3)_(3)` solution initially produces a dark brown precipitate which dissolves in excess of `KI` to give a clear yellow solution. Write chemical equation for the above reactions.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`Bi(NO_3)_(3)` undergoes hydrolysis to produce nitric acid.`HNO_(3)` oxidises `KI` i.e., `I_(2)` (brown ppt.) is formed . The precipitate which dissolves in excess of `KI` and forms a yellow coloured solution of `Kl_(3)`
`Bi(NO_3)_(3)+H_(2) to Bi(OH)(NO_3)_(2)+HNO_(3)`
`6KI+8HNO_(3) rarr 6KNO_(3)+2NO+underset("Brown ppt")(3I_(2))+4H_(2)O`
`KI+I_(2) rarr underset("Yellow soin")(KL_(3))`.

O_(3) with KI solution produces

When a KI solution is added to a metal nitrate, a black precipitate is produced which dissolves in an excess of KI to give an organge solution. The metal ion is:

A white substance (A) reacts with dilute H_(2)SO_(4) to produce a colourless suffocating gas (B) and a colourless solution (C )/ The reaction of gas (B) with potassium iodate and starch solution produce a blue colour solution. Aqueous Solution of (A) gives a white precipitate with BaCl_(2) solution which is soluble in dilute HCl . Addition of aqueous NH_(3) or NaOH to (C ) produced first a precipitate which dissolves in excess of the respective reagent to poduced a clear solution. Similarly addition of excess of potassium ferrocyanide to (C ) produced a precipitate (D) which also dissolves in aqeous NaOH giving a clear solution. Identify (A),(B),(C ) and (D ). Write the equation of the reactions involved.
