How can you distinguish between (i) `CO_(3)^(-2) and SO_(3)^(-2)` ions

1.	How can you distinguish between (i) `CO_(3)^(-2) and SO_(3)^(-2)` ions? (ii) `NO_(3)^(-)` ion and `NO_(2)^(-)` ion ?
Answer» (i) Sulphite ion `(SO_(3)^(-2))` will give `SO_(2)` gas which converts orange coloured `K_(2)Cr_(2)O_(7)` solution into green. Carbonate `(CO_(3)^(-2))` will give `CO_(2)` gas which do not given green colour with `K_(2)Cr_(2)O_(7)` solution. (ii) `NO_(2)^(-)` gives brown `NO_(2)` gas with dil. and acid but `NO_(3)^(-)` does not.

A black mineral (A) on heating in presence of air gives a gas (B). The mineral (A) on reaction with dilute `H_(2)SO_(4)` gives a gas (C) and a solution of a compound (D) on passing the gas (C) into an aqueous solution of (B), a white turbidity is obtained. The aqueous solution of (D) on reaction with potassium ferricyanide gives a blue compound (E). Identify (A) to (E) and give chemical equations for the reaction involved.
