Question

A hydrated metallic salt (A) , light green in colour gives a white anhydrous residue (B) after being heated gradually. (B) is soluble in water and its aqueous solution reacts with NO to give a dark brown compound (C). (B) on strong heating gives a brown residue (D) and a mixture of two gases (E) and (F). The gaseous mixture , when passed through acidified permanganate, discharged the pink colour and when passed through acidified BaCl2 solution, gives a white precipitate. Compounds (A), (B), (C) , (D) , (E) and (F) are identified as:
(A) : FeSO4.7H2O (B) : FeSO4,(C) : FeSO4.NO or [Fe(H2O)6NO]SO4], (D) : Fe2O3,(E) : SO2 and (F) : SO3
If true enter 1, else enter 0.

Solution

The light gren hydrated salt (A) is ferrous sulphate, FeSO4.7H2O.
When it is gradually heated, a white anhydrous residue (B) is obtained which is FeSO4.
FeSO4 is soluble in water and its aqueous solution reacts with NO to give a dark brown compound (C) which is
FeSO4.NO or [Fe(H2O)6NO]SO4] .
FeSO4+NOFeSO4.NO or
FeSO4+6H2O+NO [Fe(H2O)6NO]SO4]
FeSO4 on strong heating gives a brown residue Fe2O3 and a mixture of two gases SO2 and
SO3.
2FeSO4heat strongly−−−−−−−Fe2O3+SO2+SO3
The gaseous mixture, when passed through acidified permanganate, discharged the pink colour and when passed through acidified BaCl2 solution, gives a white precipitate of barium sulphate.
BaCl2+H2O+SO3BaSO4+2HCl
SO2 gas reduces Mn(VII) to Mn(II) which results in decolourisation.
