Name the gas that can readily decolourise acidified `KMnO_(4)` solution:

A

`SO_(2)`

B

`NO_(2)`

C

`P_(2)O_(5)`

D

`CO_(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
Potassium permanganate has a purplse colour. When sulphur dioxide reacts with potassium permanganate the solution decolourises.
`SO_(2) + 2KMnO_(4) + 2H_(2)O rarr 2H_(2)O rarr 2H_(2)SO_(4) + 2MnSO_(4) + K_(2)sO_(4)`

    An aqueous compound of an inorganic compound (X) shows the following reactions: a. it decolourises and acidified KMnO_(4) solution accompanied by the evolution of oxygen. b. it liberates I_(2) from an acidified KI solution. c. It gives a brown precipitate with alkaline KMnO_(4) solution with evolution of oxygen. d. It removes black stains from old oil paintings. Identify (X) and give chemical equtions for the reaction at steps (a) to (d).

    Why can’t HCl acid be used to acidify KMnO_(4) solution ?

    An amorphous solid ‘A’ burns in air to form a gas ‘B’ which turns lime water milky. The gas is also produced as a by-product during roasting of sulphide ore. This gas decolourises acidified aq. KMnO_(4) solution. Identify the solid ‘A’ and the gas ‘B’ and write the reaction involved. Write its any two uses.
