Question

Identify correct statements.

• A. $H_{2}S{O}_4$ can be used for drying $H_{2}S$ gas.
• B. $H_{2}S$ is a better reducing agent than water.
• C. Reaction of $H_{2}S{O}_4$ with $BaC{l}_2$ shows its oxidising nature.
• D. $H_{2}S$ can form coloured precipitate's with metal ions.

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B), (D)

$H_{2}S{O}_4$ can be used for drying $H_{2}S$ gas.
$H_{2}S$ is a better reducing agent than water.
$H_{2}S$ can form coloured precipitate's with metal ions.

$H_{2}S{O}_4$ can be used for drying $H_{2}S$ gas.
$H_{2}S$ is a better reducing agent than water because $O-H$ bond is stronger than $S-H$ $H_{2}S$ can donate $H^{+}$ in a better way than $H_{2}O$
$H_{2}S$ can form coloured precipitate with metal ions.
