The correct option(s) to distinguish nitrate salts ofMn2+andCu2+taken separately is (are)

(1)Mn2+shows the characteristic green colour in the flame test

(2) onlyCu2+shows the formation of precipitate by passingH2Sin acidic medium

(3) onlyMn2+shows the formation of precipitate by passingH2Sin faintly basic medium

(4) Cu 2+ |Cu has higher reduction potential than Mn 2+ |Mn (measured under similar conditions)

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

AManganese show pale purple colour in flame test.

B Cu2+H2SHClCuSBlack ppt.

CBothCu2+andMn2+form precipitate withH2Sin basic medium.

D E Cu 2+ |Cu o =+0.34V, E Mn 2+ |Mn o =1.18V
