A) \[H{{g}_{2}}{{l}_{2}},{{l}^{-}}\]
B) \[Hg{{l}_{2}},l_{3}^{-}\]
C) \[Hg{{l}_{2}},{{l}^{-}}\]
D) \[Hgl_{4}^{2-},l_{3}^{-}\]
Correct Answer: D
Solution :
| [d] In a solution containing \[HgC{{l}_{2}},{{l}_{2}}\]and \[{{l}^{-}},\] both \[HgC{{l}_{\,}}_{2}\]and \[{{l}_{2}}\]compete for\[{{l}^{-}}.\] |
| Since formation constant of \[{{[Hg{{l}_{4}}]}^{2-}}\] \[1.9\times {{10}^{30}}\] which is very large as compared with \[{{l}_{3}}^{-}({{K}_{f}}=700)\] |
| \[\therefore \]\[{{l}^{-}}\]will preferentially combine with \[HgC{{l}_{2}}.\] |
| \[HgC{{l}_{2}}+2{{l}^{-}}\to \underset{\text{Red}\,\text{ppt}}{\mathop{Hg{{l}_{2}}\downarrow +2C{{l}^{-}}}}\,\] |
| \[Hg{{l}_{2}}+2{{l}^{-}}\to \underset{So\operatorname{lub}le}{\mathop{{{[Hg{{l}_{4}}]}^{2-}}}}\,\] |
