|---|---|
(P) | (1) Only one of the radical decolorize aq. KMnO4 |
(Q) | (2) Both the radicals decolorize aq. KMnO4 |
(R) | (3) Can give a colorless gas with conc. H2SO4 |
(S) | (4) Adding NaOH can produce a white precipitate |
Options:
Answer:
Solution:
P: FeC₂O₄ contains Fe²⁺ and C₂O₄²⁻. Both are reducing agents, decolorizing KMnO₄ (2). Fe²⁺ forms Fe(OH)₂ ppt with NaOH (4). C₂O₄²⁻ with conc. H₂SO₄ gives CO and CO₂ (3).
Q: FeSO₄ contains Fe²⁺ and SO₄²⁻. Fe²⁺ decolorizes KMnO₄ (1). Fe²⁺ forms Fe(OH)₂ ppt with NaOH (4). SO₄²⁻ with conc. H₂SO₄ gives SO₂ (3).
R: Zn(NO₃)₂ contains Zn²⁺ and NO₃⁻. Zn²⁺ forms Zn(OH)₂ ppt with NaOH (4).
S: (NH₄)₂S contains NH₄⁺ and S²⁻. S²⁻ decolorizes KMnO₄ (2). NH₄⁺ with NaOH gives NH₃ gas (3).
Final Matching: P -> 2,3,4; Q -> 1,3,4; R -> 4; S -> 3
