Passage-II : Sulphuric acid is considered as the king of chemicals. The prosperity of any country is measured by the amount of sulphuric acid it consumes. Sulphuric acid is, thus a substance of very great commercial importance as it is used practically in every important industry. This is due to the following properties of sulphuric acid Concentrated H_(2)SO_(4) cannot be used to prepare HBr or HI from KBr or KI because it :

H_(2)SO_(4) is used in

Oleum or fuming H_(2)SO_(4) is

An aqueous solution of a white salt A gives a white precipitate B on treatment with dilute HCI in cold conditions. B is soluble in boiling water. An aqueous solution of A gives a yellow precipitate on treatment with a solution of K_(2)CrO_(4) . The soda extract of A is acidified with dilute H_(2)SO_(4) boiled to remove CO_(2) and treated with a freshly prepared solution of FeSO_(4) Concentrated H_(2)SO_(4) is added to the resulting solution (along the walls of the test tube so that the H_(2)SO_(4) forms a separate layer). A brown ring is formed at the junction of the two layers. On treatment with a Kl solution, an aqueous solution of A will give
