Answer» Correct Answer - B (a) `Li_2O+2KClrarr2LiCl+K_2O` The above equation is incorrect because amine a stronger base cannot be generated by a weaker base, `Li_2O`. (b) `[CoCl(NH_3)_5]^(+)+ 5H^(+)rarrCO^(2+)+5NH_4^+ + O^(-4)` The above equation is correct because amine complexes decompose under acidic medium. Thus, the complex `[CoCl(NH_3)_5]` decomposes under acidic conditions to give ammonium ions. (c) `[Mg(H_2O)_6]^(2+)+(EDTA)^(4-)overset(excess NaOH)rarr[Mg(EDTA)^(2+)+6H_2O` The above equation is incorrect because the product formed would be `[Mg(EDTA)]^(2-)`. (d) `CuSO_4+4KCNrarrK_2[Cu(CN)_4+K_2SO_4` The above equation is incorrect. Thus, the correct equation is `2KCN+CuSO_4rarrK_2SO_4+Cu+(CN)_2` (Cyanogen gas) |
