Question
Study the following observation and name the anion present in the reaction:
When few drops of dilute sulphuric acid is added to Salt 'R' and heated, a colourless gas is released which turns moist lead acetate paper silvery black.
Solution
The observation indicates that the gas released reacts with lead acetate paper, turning it silvery black. This suggests the presence of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) gas, which reacts with lead acetate to form lead sulfide (PbS), a black precipitate.
