A certain compound when burned gives three oxides. The first turned lime water milky, the second turned anhydrous `CuSO_4` blue and the third formed an aqueous solution of low pH. The elements present in the compound are

A

C, O and S

B

C, H and Ca

C

C, H and Na

D

C, H and S

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Compound contains C, H and S and on burning gives `CO_2, H_2O and SO_2`.
`CO_2` turns lime water milky
`H_2O` turns anhydrous `CuSO_4` blue.
`SO_2` forms an acidic solution of low pH.
