Question

(i) A black mineral (A) on heating in presence of air gives a gas (B).
(ii) The mineral (A) on reaction with dilute H2SO4 gives a gas (C) and solution of a compound (D).
(iii) On passing gas (C) into an aqueous solution (B), a white turbidity is obtained.
(iv) The aqueous solution of compound (D) on reaction with potassium ferricyanide gives a blue compound (E).
Compounds (A) to (E) are identified as:
(A) : FeS , (B) : SO2, (C) : H2S, (D) : FeSO4 and (E) : KFeII[FeIII(CN)6]
If true enter 1, else enter 0.

Solution

The black mineral (A) is ferrous sulphide, FeS.
The gas obtained on heating FeS in presence of air is sulphur dioxide, SO2.
(i) 2FeS+3.5O2Fe2O3+2SO2
FeS reacts with dil sulphuric acid to form hydrogen sulphide gas and the compound (D) which is ferrous sulphate, FeSO4.
(ii) FeS+H2SO4FeSO4+H2S
FeS reacts with gas (C) which is H2S and gives white turbidity of S.
(iii) SO2+2H2S2H2O+3S
Ferrous sulphate reacts with potassium ferricyanide to form a blue compound (E), which is KFeII[FeIII(CN)6].
(iv) FeSO4+K3[Fe(CN)6]KIIFe[III[Fe(CN)6]+K2SO4
