  • question_answer
    Reagent used in the qualitative analysis of IVth group is

    A) \[HCl\]

    B) \[{{H}_{2}}S\] (alkaline)

    C) \[{{(N{{H}_{4}})}_{2}}S\]

    D) None of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    In presence of NH4OH, dissociation of H2S is remarkably high so increases the solubility product of IVth group sulphides \[{{H}_{2}}S\]\[2{{H}^{+}}+{{S}^{2-}}\] \[N{{H}_{4}}OH\to NH_{4}^{+}+O{{H}^{-}}\] \[O{{H}^{-}}\ +\ {{H}^{+}}\ \to \ {{H}_{2}}O\]
