    A small amount of light green colored compound X is heated in a test tube. In the beginning, it loses some water and then gas Z with suffocating smell comes out. The vapors of gas are collected and dissolved in water. The solution turns blue litmus red. The residue Y left in the test tube turns reddish brown. Identify X, Y and Z.

    A)
    X Y Z
    \[PbS{{O}_{4}}\] \[P{{b}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}\] \[S{{O}_{3}}\]
     

    B)
    X Y Z
    \[FeS{{O}_{4}}.\,7{{H}_{2}}O\] \[F{{e}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}\] \[S{{O}_{2}},\,S{{O}_{3}}\]
     

    C)
    X Y Z
    \[N{{a}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}.\,10{{H}_{2}}O\] \[N{{a}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\] \[S{{O}_{2}}\]
     

    D)
    X Y Z
    \[Pb{{(N{{O}_{3}})}_{2}}\] \[Pb{{O}_{2}}\] \[N{{O}_{2}},\,{{N}_{2}}{{O}_{4}}\]
     

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[FeS{{O}_{4}}.7{{H}_{2}}O\xrightarrow{heat}\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  Ferrous \\  sulphate \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{FeS{{O}_{4}}}}\,+7{{H}_{2}}O\] \[\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  Ferrous \\  sulphate \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{2FeS{{O}_{4}}}}\,\xrightarrow{heat}\underset{\begin{align}   & \operatorname{Re}ddish \\  & brown \\  & residue \\  & \,\,\,\,\,(Y) \\ \end{align}}{\mathop{F{{e}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}}}\,+\underbrace{\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  Sulphur \\  dioxide \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{S{{O}_{2}}}}\,+\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  Sulphur \\  trioxide \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{S{{O}_{3}}}}\,}_{(Z)}\] \[S{{O}_{2}}\]and \[S{{O}_{3}}\] are acidic in nature, turn blue litmus red as they react with water to form acids as follows : \[S{{O}_{2}}+{{H}_{2}}O\xrightarrow{{}}\underset{(Sulphurous\,acid)}{\mathop{{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{3}}}}\,\] \[S{{O}_{3}}+{{H}_{2}}O\xrightarrow{{}}\underset{(Sulphurous\,acid)}{\mathop{{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}}}\,\]
