How will you distinguish between sulphite and sulphate ions?

Answer»

Solution :`BaCl_(2)` gives a white PPT. with both sulphite and SULPHATE ions. `BaSO_(3)` is soluble in CONC. HCl whereas `BaSO_(4)` is insoluble in conc. HCl `FeCl_(3)` is soluble in conc. HCl whereas `BaSO_(4)` is insoluble in conc. HCl
`FeCl_(3)` solution gives a red colour with sulphite and no colour is OBTAINED with sulphate.
