An inorganic compound ( X ) gives brick ...

An inorganic compound ( X ) gives brick red flame test and also gives following observations.
(i) Produce smell of chlorine in moist air
(ii) Produce brown coloration with `CH_(3)COOH` and KI
(iii) Produce an anasthetic compound with ethanol
What is oxidation state of chlorine in compound ( X )

A

`+1`

B

`-1`

C

Both `+1` and -1

D

Zero

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
In moist air bleaching powder give chlorine
Smell due to available chlorine
`CaOCl_(2) +CO_(2)("of air") rarr CaCO_(3) + Cl_(2) uarr`
`underset("(Bleaching powder)")(CaOCl_(2)) rarr Ca^(+2) + underset("-1)")(Cl ^(-)) +underset((+1))( OCl^(-1))`
