Given below are certain cations. Using inorganic qualitative analysis, arrange them in increasing group number from 0 to VI. Choose the correct answer from the options given below.
- B, A, D, C, E
- B, C, A, D, E
- E, C, D, B, A
- E, A, B, C, D
Answer
(1) B, A, D, C, E
Solution
Group of each cation in qualitative analysis:
Cu2+ (B): group II; Al3+ (A): group III; Co2+ (D): group IV; Ba2+ (C): group V; Mg2+ (E): group VI.
Increasing group number: B, A, D, C, E
Answer: (1)
