    Prussian blue is obtained by mixing together aqueous solution of \[\text{F}{{\text{e}}^{\text{3+}}}\]salt with

    A)  ferricyanide

    B)  ferrocyanide

    C)  hydrogen cyanide

    D)  sodium cyanide

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     \[\text{F}{{\text{e}}^{\text{3+}}}\]solution gives Prussian blue with \[{{K}_{4}}[Fe{{(CN)}_{6}}],\]potassium ferrocyanide. \[4\overset{\text{III}}{\mathop{Fe}}\,C{{l}_{3}}+3{{K}_{4}}[\overset{\text{II}}{\mathop{F}}\,e{{(CN)}_{6}}]\xrightarrow{{}}\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  \text{ferric}\,\text{ferrocyanide} \\  \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,(Prussian\,blue)  \\  \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,+\,12\,KCl \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{{{\overset{\text{III}}{\mathop{Fe}}\,}_{4}}{{[\overset{\text{II}}{\mathop{Fe}}\,{{(CN)}_{6}}]}_{3}}}}\,\]
