The equilibrium {\text{Cu}^{0} + {\text{Cu}^{\text{II}} ⇌ {\text{2Cu}^{I}

In aqueous medium at 25oC shifts towards the left in the presence of

(1) \text{C}{\textl^{-} (2) \text{C}{\textN^{-} (3) \text{SC}{\textN^{-} (4) \text{N}{{\text{O}_{3}}^{-}

Options

  1. A1,2
  2. B2,3
  3. C1,2,3
  4. D2,3,4

Correct answer

C. 1,2,3

Step-by-step solution

\text{C}{\textu^{2 +} ions will react with \text{C}{\textN^{-} and \text{SC}{\textN^{-} forming [Cu(CN)4]3−[ \text{Cu} ( \text{CN}{)}_{4}{]}^{3 -} and [Cu(SCN)4]3−[ \text{Cu} ( \text{SCN}{)}_{4}{]}^{3 -} leading the reaction in the backward direction.

\text{C}{\textu^{2 +} + \text{2C}{\textN^{-} \to \text{Cu}{\left(CN\right)}_{2}

2Cu(CN)2→2CuCN+(CN)2\text{2Cu} ( \text{CN}{)}_{2} \to \text{2CuCN} + {\left(CN\right)}_{2}

\text{CuCN} + \text{3C}{\textN^{-} \to [ \text{Cu}{\left(\text{CN}{)}_{4}\right]}^{3 -}

\text{C}{\textu^{2 +} + \text{4SC}{\textN^{-} \to [ \text{Cu}{\left(\text{SCN}{)}_{4}\right]}^{3 -}

\text{C}{\textu^{2 +} also combines with \text{CuC}{\text{l}_{2} which reacts with Cu to produce CuCl pushing the reaction in the backward direction.

\text{CuC}{\text{l}_{2} + \text{Cu} \to \text{2CuCl} ↓
