Explain why an aqueous solution of potassium hexacyanoferrate (II) does not give the test for ferrous ion.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Potassium hexacyanoferrate (II) does not give ferrous ion test, because it is coordination compound and coordination compounds do not ionise in aqueous solution, thus does not give ferrous ion test.

p-Amino-N,N-dimethylaniline is added to a strongly acidic solution of X. The resulting solution is treated with a few drops of aqueous solution of Y to yield blue colouration due to the formation of methylene blue. Treatment of aqueous solution of Y with reagent potassium hexacyanoferrate (II) leads to the formation of an intense blue precipitate. The precipitate dissolves on excess addition of the reagent. Similarly, the treatment of the solution of Y with the solution of potassium hexacyanoferrate (III) leads to a brown colouration due to the formation of Z. Q. Compound X is
