An aqueous solution of an inorganic compound X gives the following reactions:

i With the aqueous solution of barium chloride, a precipitate insoluble in dilute HCl is obtained.

ii The addition of excess KI gives a brown precipitate, which turns white on the addition of an excess of hypo.

iii With an aqueous solution of K4FeCN6, a chocolate-coloured precipitate is obtained.

Identify the compound X and give the equations for the reactions i, ii and iii.

A metal chloride X shows the following reactions:

(i) When H2S is passes in an acidified aqueous solution of X a black ppt is a obtained.

(ii) The precipitate obtained in step (i) is not soluble in yellow ammonium sulphide.

(iii) When a solution of stannous chloride is added to an aqueous solution of X,a white precipitate is obtained which turns grey on addition of more of stannous chloride.

(iv) When an aqueous solution of KI is added to an aqueous solution of X, a red precipitate is obtained which dissolves on addition of excess of KI.

Identify X and write down the equations for the reaction at steps (i), (iii) & (iv).
