    The Mohrs salt is shown by:

    A)  \[FeS{{O}_{4}}{{(N{{H}_{4}})}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}.6{{H}_{2}}O\]

    B)  \[FeS{{O}_{4}}{{(N{{H}_{3}})}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}.6{{H}_{2}}O\]

    C)  \[{{K}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}A{{l}_{2}}{{(S{{O}_{4}})}_{3}}.24{{H}_{2}}O\]

    D)  \[FeS{{O}_{2}}{{(N{{H}_{2}})}_{4}}S{{O}_{4}}.6{{H}_{2}}O\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Mohrs salt is chemically ferrous ammonium sulphate \[(FeS{{O}_{4}}.{{(N{{H}_{4}})}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}.6{{H}_{2}}O)\]. \[{{K}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}A{{l}_{2}}{{(S{{O}_{4}})}_{3}}.24{{H}_{2}}O\] is potash alum. It is used in purification of water.
