Assertion :When `H_(2)S` is passed through a solution of `CuSO_(4)` no precipitate of `CuS` is abtain until the solution is acidified with `HCI` Reasion: The solution products constant of `CuS` is not so high as to require a high concen tration of `S^(2-)` for the precipitate of `CuS`A. If both (A) and (B) are correct and (R ) is the correct explqanation of (A)B. If both (A) and (B) are correct but (R ) is not the correct explqanation of (A)C. If (A) is correct ,but (R ) is incorrectD. If (A) is incorrect ,but (R ) is correct

Answer» Correct Answer - d
It is true that precipitate of `CuS` does not requir a high concentration of `S^(2-)` ions But this does not mean that `CuS` will not precipitate with a higher concentration of `S^(2-)` In fact ,the precipitate will be faciliated by a high concentration of `S^(2-)` ,i.e. when the solution is not acidified so , (A) is false ,but (R ) is true

During the quation analysis of a mixture containing `Cu^(2+) and Zn^(2+) ions H_(2)S` gas is passed therough an acidified solution containing these ions in order to test `Cu^(2+)` alone explane

Answer» `H_(2)S hArr 2H^(o+) +S^(2-)`
`HCI rarr H +CI^(Theta)`
`K_(sp) `(solubility product) of `CuS` is less than `K_(sp)` of `ZnS `.Due to common ion effect ,the ionisation of `H_(2)S` is sappressed and the `S^(2-)` concentration decreases
Only those metal sulphides get precipitate which have low `K_(sp)` so ZnS is not precipitate.

Why is sodium carbonate extract acidified before perfoming the confirmatory tests for anions?

Answer» sodium carbonate extract in addition to the sodium salts of anions contain carbonate also. On heating with the test reagent carbonates of certain metals precipitate which interere in te detection of acid redicals. Because of this, `Na_(2)CO_(3)` is decomosed by adding HCl, `HNO_(3),H_(2)SO_(4),` depending upon the nature of test.
