When excess of NaOH solution is added in potash alumn the product is:

A

Abluish precipitate

B

Clear solution

C

White precipitate

D

Greenish precipitate

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Potash alum is `K_2SO_4 . Al_2 (SO_4)_3 . 24 H_2O`
`Al_2(SO_4)_3` reacts with NaOH to form `NaAlO_2` which is soluble `K_2SO_4 and Na_2SO_4` are also soluble and thus a clear solution is obtained in water.
`Al_2(SO_4)_3 + 6NaOH to 2Al(OH)_3 + 3Na_2SO_4`
`Al(OH)_3 + NaOH to underset("Soluble")(NaAlO_2) + 2H_2O`
