    Which of the following oxides of nitrogen does react with \[FeS{{O}_{4}}\] to form a brown compound in the test of nitrate?

    A)  \[{{N}_{2}}O\]                 

    B)  \[NO\]

    C)  \[N{{O}_{2}}\]                 

    D)  \[{{N}_{2}}{{O}_{5}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                    \[NO_{3}^{-}+{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\xrightarrow{{}}HSO_{4}^{-}+HN{{O}_{3}}\] \[6FeS{{O}_{4}}+3{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}+2HN{{O}_{3}}\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}\] \[3F{{e}_{2}}{{(S{{O}_{4}})}_{3}}4{{H}_{2}}O+\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  nitric \\  oxide \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{2NO}}\,\] \[FeS{{O}_{4}}+NO\xrightarrow{{}}\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  ferrous\,nitrososulphate\, \\  \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,(brown\,ring) \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{Fe(NO)S{{O}_{4}}}}\,\] Hence, nitric oxide (NO) reacts with \[FeS{{O}_{4}}\]to give brown compound.
