Paragraph:
When a metal rod \(M\) is dipped into an aqueous colourless concentrated solution of compound \(\mathrm{N}\), the solution turns light blue. Addition of aqueous \(\mathrm{NaCl}\) to the blue solution gives a white precipitate \(\mathrm{O}\). Addition of aqueous \(\mathrm{NH}_3\) dissolves \(\mathrm{O}\) and gives an intense blue solution.
Question:
The metal \(\operatorname{rod} M\) is
- A \(\mathrm{Fe}\)
- B \(\mathrm{Cu}\)
- C \(\mathrm{Ni}\)
- D \(\mathrm{Co}\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(\mathrm{Cu}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Appearance of blue colour on addition of the metal rod \(M\) to the solution of \(N\) is an indication that metal may be \(\mathrm{Cu}\). Later formation of white precipitate on addition of \(\mathrm{NaCl}\) and dissolution of this precipitate in aqueous ammonia confirm that while preipitate is of \(\mathrm{AgCl}\). This implies that the solution \(N\) is of \(\mathrm{AgNO}_3\). This confirm that the metal \(M\) is only \(\mathrm{Cu}\).

- Paragraph :
Redox reaction play a pivotal role in chemistry and biology. The values of standard redox potential \(\left(E^{\circ}\right)\) of two half-cell reactions decide which way the reaction is expected to proceed. A simple example is a Daniel cell in which zinc goes into solution and copper gets deposited. Given below are a set of half-cell reactions (acidic medium) along with their \(E^{\circ}(V\) with respect to normal hydrogen electrode) values. Using this data obtain the correct explanations to Questions 14-19.
