Q16 / 60 · JEE Advanced 2014 (Paper 2) · Chemistry

Paragraph: An aqueous solution of metal ion $\mathbf{M} 1$ reacts separately with reagents $\mathbf{Q}$ and $\mathbf{R}$ in excess to give tetrahedral and square planar complexes, respectively. An aqueous solution of another metal ion M2 always forms tetrahedral complexes with these reagents. Aqueous solution of $\mathbf{M} 2$ on reaction with reagent $\mathbf{S}$ gives white precipitate which dissolves in excess of $\mathbf{S}$. The reactions are summarized in the scheme given below: Figure

Question: Reagent $\mathbf{S}$ is

  • A
    K4FeCN6
  • B
    Na2HPO4
  • C
    K2CrO4
  • Correct answer
    D
    KOH

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
