    Which of the following salt would give \[\text{S}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}\] with hot and dil. \[{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}\text{S}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}\] also decolourises \[\text{B}{{\text{r}}_{2}}\] water?

    A) \[N{{a}_{2}}S{{O}_{3}}\]              

    B)        \[NaHS{{O}_{4}}\]          

    C)        \[N{{a}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\]              

    D)        \[N{{a}_{2}}S\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[\text{N}{{\text{a}}_{\text{2}}}\text{S}{{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}}\]reacts with hot and dil. \[{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}\text{S}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}\] to give \[\text{S}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}\]gas which decolourise bromine water \[N{{a}_{2}}S{{O}_{3}}+{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\xrightarrow{{}}N{{a}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}+S{{O}_{2}}+{{H}_{2}}O\] \[B{{r}_{2}}+{{H}_{2}}O\xrightarrow{{}}2HBr+[O]\] \[S{{O}_{2}}+[O]\xrightarrow{{}}S{{O}_{3}}\] decolourisation of bromine water.
