    The ion present in Nesslers reagent is:

    A) \[Hg{{I}_{2}}\]       

    B)        \[HgI_{4}^{2-}\]

    C) \[H{{g}^{2+}}\]     

    D)        \[H{{g}^{+}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Key Idea: Nesslers reagent is used to detect presence of \[\text{N}{{\text{H}}_{\text{4}}}^{\text{+}}\]ions in inorganic salt analysis. Nesslers reagent is \[{{\text{K}}_{2}}[Hg{{I}_{4}}]\]and it has \[{{[Hg{{I}_{4}}]}^{2-}}\] ion.
