The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the iron salt used in blueprints, we will analyze the options provided and determine which one is correct based on the characteristics of the compounds. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Blueprints**: - Blueprints are a type of reproduction of technical drawings. They are made using light-sensitive paper coated with iron salts. When exposed to light, these salts undergo a chemical reaction that produces a blue image. 2. **Analyzing the Options**: - The options given are: - A) FeC2O4 - B) Fe2C2O4 (thrice) - C) K4FeCN6 - D) FeSO4 3. **Identifying the Color Producing Compound**: - The blue color in blueprints is produced due to the presence of certain iron compounds that can absorb light and produce a blue color. 4. **Checking for Unpaired Electrons**: - Compounds that impart color typically have unpaired electrons. This is because unpaired electrons can transition between energy levels when exposed to light, resulting in color. - Among the options, we need to check which compound has unpaired electrons. 5. **Evaluating Each Option**: - **A) FeC2O4**: This compound does not have the required structure to produce a blue color. - **B) Fe2C2O4 (thrice)**: This compound contains iron in a form that can have unpaired electrons and is known to produce a blue color. - **C) K4FeCN6**: This is potassium ferrocyanide, which is not typically used for blueprints. - **D) FeSO4**: While this is an iron salt, it does not produce a blue color in the context of blueprints. 6. **Conclusion**: - The iron salt used in blueprints is **Fe2C2O4 (thrice)**, as it has the required properties to produce the blue color when exposed to light. ### Final Answer: The iron salt used in blueprints is **Fe2C2O4 (thrice)**.
