    Ferric ion forms a Prussian blue coloured precipitate of:

    A)  \[{{K}_{4}}[Fe{{(CN)}_{6}}]\]    

    B) \[{{K}_{3}}[Fe{{(CN)}_{6}}]\]

    C)  \[Fe{{(CNS)}_{3}}\]                       

    D)  \[F{{e}_{4}}{{[Fe{{(CN)}_{6}}]}_{3}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                     \[\underset{Ferric\,ion}{\mathop{4F{{e}^{3+}}}}\,+3{{K}_{4}}[Fe{{(CN)}_{6}}]\xrightarrow{{}}\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  Ferric\text{ }ferrocyanide \\  \,\,\,\,\,\,(\Pr ussian\text{ }blue) \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{F{{e}_{4}}{{[Fe{{(CN)}_{6}}]}_{3}}}}\,\]                                                                 \[+12{{K}^{+}}\] Ferric ions with potassium ferrocyanide produce prussian blue colour of ferric ferrocyanide.
