Question
Name the anion [negative ion] present in the following compound:
Compound D when warmed with dilute H2SO4 gives a gas which turns acidified potassium dichromate solution green.
Advertisements
Solution 1
Sulphuric acid, when treated with sulphites gives sulphate salts, water and sulphur dioxide gas. Sulphur dioxide turns potassium dichromate solution green. Thus, the negative ion is Sulphite ion.
Solution 2
Compound D is Na2SO3 and anion is \[\ce{[SO^{2-}3]}\].
