Passage / Comprehension

Metal (M) is a white, crystalline metal and is not appreciably ductile or malleable. It has a very high melting point. The metal is soluble in dilute or concentrated hydrochloric acid. If air is excluded, Metal(II) ions are formed:

.

Metal(II) ions are rather unstable as they are strong reducing agents; they decompose even in acidic solution with the formation of hydrogen and .

In the presence of atmospheric oxygen, metal (M) gets partly or wholly oxidized to the trivalent state:

.

Dilute sulfuric acid attacks metal (M) slowly, with the formation of hydrogen. In hot, concentrated sulfuric acid, metal (M) dissolves readily to form metal(III) ions and sulfur dioxide: .

Highly concentrated nitric acid renders metal (M) passive.

Aqueous solution of MCl3. 6H2O when reacts with Na2O2 it produce coloured solution(s). Coloured solution(s) does not produce any ppt with ( dil. HCl ), but yellow ppt is produced with ( CH3COOHaq. ).
