Gaseous products formed when gun powder is subjected to heating are dissolved in water. Identify the products formed on dissolution.

Answer»

`H_(2)CO_(3), HNO_(3)`
`H_(2)SO_(3), H_(2)SO_(4)`
`H_(2)SO_(4), HNO_(2)`
`H_(2)SO_(3), H_(2)CO_(3)`

Solution :The components present in gun powder are `KNO_(3)`, C and `S. KNO_(3)` on heating GIVES `KNO_(2) "and" O_(2)`. The liberated `O_(2)` is the source for the combustion of carbon and sulphur. The products formed are `CO_(2) "and" SO_(2)` which dissolve in water to form `H_(2)CO_(3) "and" H_(2)SO_(3)`.
