A red solid is insoluble in water.Howeve...

A red solid is insoluble in water.However it becomes soluble if some `KI` is added to water.Heating the red solid in a test tube results in liberation of some violet coloured fumes and droplets of a metal appear on the cooler parts of the test tube.The red solid is :

A

`(NH_(4))_(2)Cr_(2)O_(7)`

B

`HgI_(2)`

C

`HgO`

D

`Pb_(3)O_(4)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
2
`Hgl_(2) darr + 2l^(-) to [Hgl_(4)]^(2-)` (colourless soluble complex)
`Hgl_(2) overset(Delta)to Hg+l_(2) uarr` (violet colour)
