Identify the gas evolved and give the chemical test when dilute hydrochloric acid reacts with : (i) Sodium sulphite. (ii) Iron [II] sulphide.
(i) SO2 is evolved when dilute hydrochloric acid reacts with sodium sulphite. Na2SO3 + 2HCl ⟶ 2NaCl + H2O + SO2 [g] (ii) H2S gas is evolved when dilute hydrochloric acid reacts with…
