A gas, A obtained by heating aluminum with sodium hydroxide was passed over a black solid, B at 773K when a grey metal, C and a colourless liquid, D were obtained. The metal C displaces copper from copper sulphate solution and becomes passive on treatment with cone. IINO3. Identity A, B, C and D and explain all the reactions. |

Answer» (i) 2Al(s) + 2NaOH(aq) + 2H2O(l) → 2NaAlO2(aq) + 3H2(g) Dihydrogen(A) (ii) Fe3O4(s) {Black solid(B)} + 4H2(g) \(\overset{773\,K}{\longrightarrow}\) 3Fe(s) Grey metal(C) + 4H2O Water(D) (iii) Fe(s) + CuSO4(aq) → FeSO4(sq) + Cu(s) (iv) 3Fe(s) + 8IINO3(sq) → FeO.Fe2O3(s) {Ferrosoferri oxide(B)} + 8NO2(g) + 4H2O(l) Iron is rendered passive due to the formation of ferrosoferric oxide or magnetic oxide {black solid (B)} |
