The correct Answer is:
To identify the compound (X) and write down the chemical equations for the given reactions, we can analyze each reaction step by step. ### Step 1: Identify the compound (X) From the first reaction, we can deduce that the compound (X) is Calcium Oxychloride, represented as \( \text{Ca(OCl)}_2 \) or \( \text{CaOCl}_2 \). ### Step 2: Reaction (i) **Reaction Description**: When KI is added to an aqueous suspension of (X) containing dilute HCl, iodine is liberated. **Chemical Equation**: 1. \( \text{Ca(OCl)}_2 + 2 \text{HCl} \rightarrow \text{CaCl}_2 + \text{Cl}_2 + \text{H}_2\text{O} \) 2. \( \text{Cl}_2 + 2 \text{KI} \rightarrow 2 \text{KCl} + \text{I}_2 \) **Overall Reaction**: \[ \text{Ca(OCl)}_2 + 2 \text{HCl} + 2 \text{KI} \rightarrow \text{CaCl}_2 + 2 \text{KCl} + \text{I}_2 + \text{H}_2\text{O} \] ### Step 3: Reaction (ii) **Reaction Description**: When the paste of (X) in water is heated with acetone, a product of anesthetic use is obtained. **Chemical Equation**: 1. \( \text{Ca(OCl)}_2 + 2 \text{H}_2\text{O} \rightarrow \text{Ca(OH)}_2 + \text{Cl}_2 \) 2. \( \text{Cl}_2 + \text{CH}_3\text{COCH}_3 \rightarrow \text{CCl}_3\text{COCH}_3 + 3 \text{HCl} \) 3. \( \text{CCl}_3\text{COCH}_3 + \text{Ca(OH)}_2 \rightarrow \text{CHCl}_3 + \text{CaCO}_3 + \text{H}_2\text{O} \) **Overall Reaction**: \[ \text{Ca(OCl)}_2 + 2 \text{CH}_3\text{COCH}_3 + 2 \text{H}_2\text{O} \rightarrow \text{CHCl}_3 + \text{CaCO}_3 + 3 \text{HCl} \] ### Step 4: Reaction (iii) **Reaction Description**: When \( \text{CO}_2 \) is passed through an aqueous suspension of (X), the turbidity transforms to a precipitate. **Chemical Equation**: 1. \( \text{Ca(OCl)}_2 + \text{CO}_2 + \text{H}_2\text{O} \rightarrow \text{CaCO}_3 + \text{Cl}_2 \) **Overall Reaction**: \[ \text{Ca(OCl)}_2 + \text{CO}_2 + \text{H}_2\text{O} \rightarrow \text{CaCO}_3 \downarrow + \text{Cl}_2 \] ### Conclusion The compound (X) is \( \text{Ca(OCl)}_2 \) (Calcium Oxychloride). The reactions can be summarized as follows: 1. \( \text{Ca(OCl)}_2 + 2 \text{HCl} + 2 \text{KI} \rightarrow \text{CaCl}_2 + 2 \text{KCl} + \text{I}_2 + \text{H}_2\text{O} \) 2. \( \text{Ca(OCl)}_2 + 2 \text{CH}_3\text{COCH}_3 + 2 \text{H}_2\text{O} \rightarrow \text{CHCl}_3 + \text{CaCO}_3 + 3 \text{HCl} \) 3. \( \text{Ca(OCl)}_2 + \text{CO}_2 + \text{H}_2\text{O} \rightarrow \text{CaCO}_3 \downarrow + \text{Cl}_2 \)
