What information do you get if the addition of dil H2SO4 to the salt results in the
formation of white precipitate?
It indicates that the cation present in the salt may be Pb2+, Ba2+, Sr2+ or Ca2+ which
form insoluble sulphates.

Both NO2 and Br2 evolved when NO3 and Br salts react with conc H2SO4 are
brown. How would you distinguish between them?
Pass the gas through FeSO4 solution. If it turns black, or brown then the gas is NO2.
And.
Br2 vapours turns starch paper yellow. In case of NO , the evolution of vapours
intensify on addition of copper turnings.

Why should freshly prepared FeSO4 be used in the brown ring test for nitrate?
What is the composition of brown ring?
Ferrous sulphate is not stable and is easily oxidized to Ferric sulphate, which will not
form complex with NO. So a freshly prepared solution must be used.
What is the principle of separation of cations in each group in the group analysis
table?
It is based on the principle of selective precipitation that depends on the concept of
solubility product.

Why is dil H2SO4 added to the conical flask containing oxalic acid / ferrous
ammonium sulphate solution before titrating with KMnO4?.
KMno4 acts as oxidizing against in acidic medium in the titration. Dil H2SO4
provides the acidic medium.
26.
Write ionic equation for the reduction of MnO4 in acidic medium and alkaline
medium. In which medium does it act as a stronger oxidizing agent?
Ans.
MnO + 8H+ + 5e
MnO + 3e + 2H2O
MnO2(s) + 4OHIt is a stronger oxidising agent in acidic medium.
Eo = 0.59v

Why is oxalic acid + Dil H2SO4 heated to 60oC 70oC before titration?
To increase the rate of reaction. The reaction is very slow at room temperature.

Why is ferrous ammonium sulphate used for preparing standard solution? Why
cant ferrous sulphate be used?
Fe2+ in Ferrous sulphate is oxidized to Fe3+ and so its concentration changes. F.A.S.
being a double salt is stable.
Why does the decolourisation of KMnO4 become faster as the reaction proceeds?
Mn2+ catalyses the reaction. As the concentration of KMnO4 decreases, concentration
of Mn2+ increases and the rate increases.
