A solid compound 'X' on heating gives CO...

A solid compound `'X'` on heating gives `CO_(2)` gas and a residue. The residue mixed with water forms `'Y'`. On passing an excess of `CO_(2)` through `'Y'` in water , a clear solution, `'Z'` is obtained. On boiling `'Z'`, compound `'X'` is reformed. The compound `'X'` is

A

`CaCO_(3)`

B

`Na_(2)CO_(3)`

C

`K_(2)CO_(3)`

D

`Ca(HCO_(3))_(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`X overset(Delta)rarr CO_(2)+` residue
Residue + water `rarr Y` (clear solution)
`Y + CO_(2) Y + CO_(2) overset(H_(2)O)rarr Z`
`Z overset("Boiling")rarr X`
since if is producing `CO_(2)` i.e. its is carbonate salt.
`CaCO_(3) overset(Delta)rarr CO_(2)+CaO`
`CaC + H_(2) overset(Delta)rarr Ca(OH)_(2)` lime water
`Ca(OH)_(2)+CO_(2) rarr Ca(HCO_(3))_(2)`
`Ca(HCO_(3))_(2) overset(Delta)rarr CaCO_(3)+ CO_(2)+ H_(2)O`
`X rarr CaCO_(3)`
