Options:

A) $ CuS+2{{H}^{+}}+3N{{O}^{-}}_3\to Cu^{2+}+NO_2\uparrow +H_2O+S $

B) $ 3CuS + 8H^{+} + 8NO_3^{-} \to 3Cu(NO_3)_2 + 3S + 4H_2O + 2NO $

C) $ CuS+4NO_3^-\to Cu(NO_3)_2+H_2S+H_2O $

D) None of the above incorrect

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

[b] $ CuS $ (Black ppt.) on boiling with $ HNO_3 $ results in the formation of colloidal S and blue coloured solution of $ Cu{{(NO_3)}_2} $ .
