    The incorrect statement in respect of chromyl chloride test is

    A)  formation of red vapours

    B)         formation of lead chromate

    C)         formation of chromyl chloride

    D)         liberation of chlorine

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Chromyl chloride test is used for\[C{{l}^{-}}\]ions. Chlorine is not liberated in this test. \[4NaCl+{{K}_{2}}C{{r}_{2}}{{O}_{7}}+3{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\xrightarrow{{}}{{K}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\] \[+2N{{a}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}+\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,chromyl\,\,chloride \\  (reddish\,\,brown\,\,vapour) \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{2Cr{{O}_{2}}C{{l}_{2}}}}\,\uparrow +3{{H}_{2}}O\] \[Cr{{O}_{2}}C{{l}_{2}}+4NaOH\xrightarrow{{}}2NaCl+N{{a}_{2}}Cr{{O}_{4}}\]                                                                  \[+2{{H}_{2}}O\] \[N{{a}_{2}}Cr{{O}_{4}}+{{(C{{H}_{3}}COO)}_{2}}Pb\xrightarrow{{}}2C{{H}_{3}}COONa\]                                                                 \[+\underset{lead\,\,chromate}{\mathop{PbCr{{O}_{4}}}}\,\]
