Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(Fe_{4}[Fe(CN)_{6}]_{3}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Ferric ion forms a prussian blue precipitate due to the formation of \(\mathrm{Fe}_{4}\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right]_{3}\). This complex is formed during the determine action of presence of nitrogen in the given sample. In this method, to portion of sodium fusion…
