Given below are two statements:
Statement-I: The gas liberated on warming a salt with dil \(H _2 SO _4\), turns a piece of paper dipped in lead acetate into black, it is a confirmatory test for sulphide ion.
Statement-II: In statement-I the colour of paper turns black because of formation of lead sulphite. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
- A Both Statement-I and Statement-II are false
- B Statement-I is false but Statement-II is true
- C Statement-I is true but Statement-II is false
- D Both Statement-I and Statement-II are true.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) Statement-I is true but Statement-II is false
Step-by-step Solution
