The reagent(s) that can selectively precipitate S2−{S}^{2 -} from a mixture of S2−{S}^{2 -} and SO42−S{O}_{4}^{2 -} in aqueous solution is (are)

Options

  1. ACuCl2CuC{l}_{2}
  2. BBaCl2BaC{l}_{2}
  3. CPb{\left(OOCC{H}_{3}\right)}_{2}
  4. DNa2[Fe(CN)5NO]N{a}_{2}\left[Fe{\left(CN\right)}_{5}NO\right]

Correct answer

A. CuCl2CuC{l}_{2}

Step-by-step solution

(A)

{CuCl2+S2−(soln)(soln)\begin{cases}CuC{l}_{2} & + & S^{2 -} \\ \left(sol^{n}\right) & & \left(sol^{n}\right)\end{cases}\begin{cases}\to & CuS ↓ & + \\ & \left(Blackppt .\right) & \end{cases}2Cl−(Soln)\begin{array}{ll}2Cl^{-} \\ \left(Sol^{n}\right)\end{array}

As in question selective precipitation is asked PbS\text{P}\text{b}\text{S} will be precipitate much easier than PbSO4PbS{O}_{4} though both are insoluble. Hence, answer should be Pb(OOC−CH3)2\text{P}\text{b}{( \text{O}\text{O}\text{C} - \text{C}{H}_{3} )}_{2} also along with \text{C}\text{u}\text{C}{l}_{2}.
