Important Questions on Practical Chemistry

HARD

Identify the salt Q from the following observation:

Salt Q is white in colour. On strong heating, it produces buff-yellow residue and liberates a reddish-brown gas. Solution of salt Q produces chalky white insoluble precipitate with an excess of ammonium hydroxide.

HARD

Identify the salt P from the following observations:

Salt P has light bluish-green colour. On heating, it produces a black coloured residue. Salt P produces brisk effervescence with dilute HCl and the gas evolved turns lime water milky, but no action with acidified potassium dichromate solution.

HARD

Identify the salt R from the following observation:

Salt R is black in colour. On reacting with concentrated HCl, it liberates a pungent greenish-yellow gas which turns moist starch iodide paper blue-black.

MEDIUM

HARD

Match the following:

(i) Lead nitrate  (a) A black oxidising agent. 
(ii) Copper hydroxide  (b) A gas which is absorbed by FeSO4 to give a reddish-brown addition compound. 
(iii) Nitrogen dioxide  (c) A coloured metallic hydroxide insoluble in excess of sodium hydroxide, but soluble in excess of ammonium hydroxide.
