Gas A is bubbled through slaked lime when a white precipitate is formed. On prolonged bubbling the precipitate is dissolved. On heating the resultant solution, the white precipitate reappears with evolution of gas B. The gases A and B respectively are
Options
- ACO and CO
- BCO 2 and CO
- CCO and CO 2
- DCO 2 and CO 2
Correct answer
D. CO 2 and CO 2
Step-by-step solution
CO 2 + Ca OH 2 ⟶ CaCO 3 ↓ + H 2 O A white ppt CaCO 3 + CO 2 + H 2 O ⟶ Ca HCO 3 2 Calcium bicarbonate (Souble in water) Ca HCO 3 2 ⟶ Heat CaCO 3 + CO 2 + H 2 O B A and B are C O 2 and C O 2 .
