Question

Abhishek was given a salt ‘X’ which was white in colour for analysis. On strong heating, it produced a yellow residue, a colourless gas and also a reddish-brown gas. The solution of the salt ‘X’, when tested with an excess of ammonium hydroxide, produced a chalky white insoluble precipitate.
