The correct Answer is:
To solve the question step by step, we will analyze the reactions involved and identify the compounds A and B. ### Step 1: Identify the Reaction of Ag₂S with NaCN When silver sulfide (Ag₂S) reacts with sodium cyanide (NaCN), it forms a complex compound. The reaction can be represented as follows: \[ \text{Ag}_2\text{S} + 4 \text{NaCN} \rightarrow 2 \text{NaAg(CN)}_2 + \text{Na}_2\text{S} \] ### Step 2: Identify Compound A From the reaction above, we can see that the product formed from the reaction of Ag₂S and NaCN is a complex salt, which we denote as A: \[ A = \text{NaAg(CN)}_2 \] ### Step 3: Reaction of A with Zn Next, we consider the reaction of compound A with zinc (Zn). When zinc is passed through the solution containing A, it reduces the silver ions present in the complex. The reaction can be represented as follows: \[ \text{NaAg(CN)}_2 + \text{Zn} \rightarrow \text{Na}_2\text{Zn(CN)}_4 + 2 \text{Ag} \] ### Step 4: Identify Compound B From the reaction above, we can see that the product formed after passing Zn through A is: \[ B = 2 \text{Ag} \] ### Summary of Compounds Thus, we have identified: - A = NaAg(CN)₂ (the complex formed from Ag₂S and NaCN) - B = 2Ag (the silver metal produced after reduction by Zn) ### Final Answer Hence, A and B are: - A = NaAg(CN)₂ - B = 2Ag
