A compound `(A)` is greenish crystalline salt, which gave the following reactions.
(i)Addition of `BaCl_(2)` solution to the solution of `(A)` results in the formation of white precipitate `(B)` which is insoluble in dilute `HCl`.
(ii)On heating `(A)`, water vapours and two oxides of sulphur `(C )` and `(D)` are liberated leaving a red brown residue `(E)`.
(iii)`(E)` dissolves in warm concentrated `HCl` to give a yellow solution `(F)`.
(iv)Solution `(F)` on treatment with thiocyanate ions gives blood red coloured compound `(G)`.
Identify the compounds from `(A)` to `(G)`.

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will identify the compounds from (A) to (G) based on the given reactions. ### Step 1: Identify Compound (A) The question states that compound (A) is a greenish crystalline salt. The most common greenish crystalline salt is Iron(II) sulfate heptahydrate, which is represented as: - **(A) = FeSO4·7H2O** ### Step 2: Reaction with BaCl2 The first reaction indicates that when (A) is treated with BaCl2, a white precipitate (B) is formed, which is insoluble in dilute HCl. The reaction can be written as: - **FeSO4 + BaCl2 → BaSO4 (B) + FeCl2 + 7H2O** Here, BaSO4 is the white precipitate that is insoluble in dilute HCl. - **(B) = BaSO4** ### Step 3: Heating Compound (A) The second reaction states that upon heating (A), water vapors and two oxides of sulfur (C and D) are released, leaving a red-brown residue (E). The decomposition of FeSO4 can be represented as: - **2 FeSO4 → Fe2O3 (E) + SO2 (C) + SO3 (D) + H2O** Thus, the red-brown residue is Iron(III) oxide. - **(C) = SO2** - **(D) = SO3** - **(E) = Fe2O3** ### Step 4: Dissolving Residue (E) in HCl The third reaction indicates that the red-brown residue (E) dissolves in warm concentrated HCl to give a yellow solution (F). The reaction can be represented as: - **Fe2O3 + 6 HCl → 2 FeCl3 (F) + 3 H2O** The yellow solution formed is Iron(III) chloride. - **(F) = FeCl3** ### Step 5: Reaction with Thiocyanate Ions The fourth reaction states that when solution (F) is treated with thiocyanate ions, a blood-red colored compound (G) is formed. The reaction can be represented as: - **FeCl3 + 6 KSCN → K3[Fe(SCN)6] (G)** This compound is known for its blood-red color. - **(G) = K3[Fe(SCN)6]** ### Summary of Compounds - **(A) = FeSO4·7H2O** - **(B) = BaSO4** - **(C) = SO2** - **(D) = SO3** - **(E) = Fe2O3** - **(F) = FeCl3** - **(G) = K3[Fe(SCN)6]**
