The correct Answer is:
To identify the products formed in the reaction of nitrite, acetic acid, and thiourea, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Write the Reaction**: The reaction given is: \[ \text{Nitrite} + \text{Acetic acid} + \text{Thiourea} \rightarrow \text{N}_2 \uparrow + \text{SCN}^- + 2\text{H}_2\text{O} \] 2. **Identify the Product of Interest**: The product of interest in this reaction is the thiocyanate ion (\( \text{SCN}^- \)). 3. **Choose a Test for the Product**: To identify the presence of the thiocyanate ion, we can perform a chemical test using iron(III) ions (\( \text{Fe}^{3+} \)). 4. **Perform the Test**: When \( \text{SCN}^- \) reacts with \( \text{Fe}^{3+} \) ions (which can be supplied by \( \text{FeCl}_3 \)), a complex is formed: \[ \text{Fe}^{3+} + \text{SCN}^- \rightarrow \text{[Fe(SCN)]}^{2+} \] 5. **Observe the Color Change**: The formation of the complex \( \text{[Fe(SCN)]}^{2+} \) results in a blood-red color. This color change indicates the presence of thiocyanate ions in the solution. 6. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the formation of the blood-red color upon the addition of \( \text{FeCl}_3 \) in dilute HCl confirms the presence of \( \text{SCN}^- \) ions, indicating that the reaction has occurred. ### Final Answer: The formation of the product in the above reaction can be identified by reacting the solution with \( \text{FeCl}_3 \) in dilute HCl, which will produce a blood-red color. ---
