The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the correct statements about sulfides and thiosulfates, we will analyze each option step by step: ### Step 1: Analyze Option 1 **Statement:** Normal and polysulfides of alkali metals are soluble in water. **Analysis:** - Alkali metal sulfides (like Na2S) are indeed soluble in water. - When Na2S is dissolved in water, it can form NaHS and further react to produce H2S gas and NaOH. - Therefore, this statement is **correct**. ### Step 2: Analyze Option 2 **Statement:** The sulfides of aluminium and magnesium can only be prepared under dry conditions as they are completely hydrolyzed by water. **Analysis:** - It is known that aluminum and magnesium sulfides are prepared at high temperatures (greater than 1100°C) to avoid hydrolysis. - If water is present, these sulfides will hydrolyze, making it necessary to prepare them under dry conditions. - Thus, this statement is **correct**. ### Step 3: Analyze Option 3 **Statement:** When filter paper is moistened with a solution of sodium nitroprusside, then the NaOH or ammonia solution produces a purple coloration with free hydrogen sulfide. **Analysis:** - When sodium sulfide (Na2S) reacts with sodium nitroprusside, it forms a violet-colored complex (Na4Fe(CN)5NOS). - The presence of hydrogen sulfide leads to this purple coloration. - Therefore, this statement is **correct**. ### Step 4: Analyze Option 4 **Statement:** Thiosulfate salts of lead, silver, and barium are insoluble and dissolve in excess sodium thiosulfide solution forming thiosulfide. **Analysis:** - The sulfides of lead, silver, and barium are generally insoluble in water but can dissolve in excess sodium thiosulfide. - However, the statement incorrectly suggests that they are insoluble and form thiosulfide, which is misleading. - The correct interpretation is that they dissolve in sodium thiosulfide, but they are not thiosulfides themselves. - Thus, this statement is **incorrect**. ### Conclusion The correct statements are: - Option 1: Correct - Option 2: Correct - Option 3: Correct - Option 4: Incorrect ### Final Answer The correct options are 1, 2, and 3. ---
