When a fluoride is heated with concentration H 2 S O 4 in a glass tube and if a drop of water is held at the mouth of the glass tube, a white deposit formed is of
Options
- AH 2 S i F 6
- BS i O 2
- CH 2 S i O 3
- DS i F 4 + H 2 F 2
Correct answer
C. H 2 S i O 3
Step-by-step solution
C a F 2 + H 2 S O 4 c o n c . → C a S O 4 + H 2 F 2 S i O 2 + 2 H 2 F 2 → S i F 4 + 2 H 2 O 3SiF 4   +   3H 2 O   → H 2 SiO 3 Silicic   acid (Gelatinous   mass)   +     2H 2 SiF 6 (Hydrofluoro silicic acid)
