A colourless gas 'A' with a pungent odour is highly soluble in water and its aqueous solution is weakly basic. As a weak base, it precipitates the hydroxides of many metals from their salt solution. Gas 'A' finds application in detection of metal ions. It gives a deep blue colouration with copper ions. Identify the gas 'A' and write the chemical equations involved in the following :
(i) Gas 'A' with copper ions
(ii) Solution of gas 'A' with `ZnSO_(4)` solution.
