On adding two or three drops of FeCl_(3) into the excess of solution (A) a violet coloured compound (D) is formed. This colour disapperars quickly.

Answer»


ANSWER :The reactions indicate that the compound (A) is sodium thiosulphate. It is formed in step (i) by passing gas (B) which is either `I_(2)`.
`S_(2)O_(3)^(2-)+Fe^(3+) underset((D)" violet")(RARR) [Fe^(3+)(S_(2)O_(3))_(2)]^(-)`
`[Fe(S_(2)O_(3))_(2)]^(-)+Fe^(3+) rarr 2 Fe^(2+)+S_(4)O_(6)^(2-)`
