A red solide is insoluble in water. However it becomes soluble if some KI is added to water. On heating the red solid in a test tube, there is liberation of some violet coloured fumes and droplets of a metal appear on the cooler parts of the test tube. The red solid is :

A

`(NH_(4))_(2)Cr_(2)O_(7)`

B

`HgI_(2)`

C

`HgO`

D

`Pb_(3)O_(4)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
2

`Hgl_(2) darr + 2l^(-) to [Hgl_(4)]^(2-)` (colourless soluble complex)
`Hgl_(2) overset(Delta)to Hg+l_(2) uarr` (violet colour)

A red solid is insoluble in water. However, it becomes soluble if some KI is added to water. Heating rod solid in a test tube produces violet coloured fumes and droplets of metal appear on the cooler parts of test tube. The red solid is

When an aqueous solution of a colourless mixture of two salts is treated with a drop of chlorine water, the solution becomes brown. Some chloroform is added to the brown solution and the resulting mixture is shaken wel. The chloroform layer becomes violet. (ii) When chlorine water is again added dropwise to the above mixture, the chloroform layer becomes colourless. (iii) On being heated with solid K_(2)Cr_(2)O_(7) and concentrated H_(2)SO_(4) , the solid mixture gives vapours of a dark colour which form a yellow solution with aqueous NaOH. On acidification with acetic acid followed by treatment with lead acetate, the yellow solution gives a yellow precipitate. (iv) When boiled with an NaOH solution, the mixture gives a gas that produces thick white fumes with HCl vapours and turns nessler's reagent brown. the mixture does not respond to any other test for cations. (v) The mixture, on being heated, gets completely sublimed. Q. Which of the following reactions takes place in (ii) ?

Salts M, N, O, P and Q undergo reactiom (i) to (v) respectively. Identify the cation present in these salts on the basis of these reaction. Tabulate your answer in the format given below. 1. When sodium hydroxide solution is added to the salt M, and heated strongly a colourless gas with a pungent smell is evolved which turm red litmus paper blue and gives dense white fumes with a moist glass rod with hydrochloric acid. 2. Addition of dilute hydrochloric acid to a solution of N gives a thick white precipitate which is soluble in hot water. 3. When ammonium hydroxide solution is added to the solution of 0 a light blue precipitate is obtained which is soluble in excess of ammonium hydroxide to form an inteme deep blue solution. 4. When ammonium hydroxide solution is added to the solution of P reddish brown (mustard colour) precipitate is obtained which ,is insoluble even in the excess of ammonium hydroxide solution. 5. When sodium hydroxide solution is added to the solution of Q a which coloured gelatinous precipitate is obtained which is soluble in excess of sodium hydroxide to form a clear solution

You have been provided with three test tubes. One of them contains distilled water and the other two contain an acidic solution and a basic solution, respectively. If you are given only red litmus paper, how will you identify the contents of each test tube?

When hydrogen is passed over a black solid compound A, the products are 'a colourless liquid' and 'a reddish brown metal B.' Substance B is divided into two parts, each placed in separate test tubes. Dilute HCl is added to one part of substance B and dilute HNO, to the other. Write an equation for the reaction between hydrogen and substance A.

When hydrogen is passed over a black solid compound A, the products are .a colourless liquid. and .a reddish brown metal B.. Substance B is divided into two parts, each placed in separate test tubes. Dilute HCl is added to one part of substance B and dilute HNO_3 to the other. Give two tests for the colourless liquid formed in the experiment. What does it signifies ?
