JEE Advanced · Chemistry · 7. Chemical Equilibrium

The equilibrium \(2 \mathrm{Cu}^{\mathrm{I}} \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{Cu}^0+\mathrm{Cu}^{\text {II }}\) in aqueous medium at \(25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\) shifts towards the left in the presence of

  1. A \(\mathrm{NO}_3^{-}\)
  2. B \(\mathrm{Cl}^{-}\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{SCN}^{-}\)
  4. D \(\mathrm{CN}^{-}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\mathrm{Cl}^{-}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{Cl}^{-}, \mathrm{CN}^{-}\)and \(\mathrm{SCN}^{-}\)froms precipitate with \(\mathrm{Cu}\) (I), remove \(\mathrm{Cu}\) (I) ion from equilibrium and reaction shift in direction shift in backward direction according to Le-Chatelier's principle.
