    A metal nitrate reacts with KI to give a black precipitate which on addition of excess of KI convert into orange colour solution. The cation of the metal nitrate is [IIT 2005]

    A) \[H{{g}^{2+}}\]

    B) \[B{{i}^{3+}}\]

    C) \[P{{b}^{2+}}\]

    D) \[C{{u}^{+}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    \[Bi{{\left( N{{O}_{3}} \right)}_{3}}\left( aq \right)\text{ }+\text{ }3KI\left( aq \right)~\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}Bi{{I}_{3}}\left( s \right)+\text{ }\underset{(Black)}{\mathop{3KN{{O}_{3}}\left( aq \right)}}\,\] \[Bi{{I}_{3}}\left( s \right)+KI\left( aq \right)~K\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}\underset{Orange\,Colour}{\mathop{\left[ Bi{{I}_{4}} \right]}}\,\]
