Reagent used in the qualitative analysis of IVth group is

A$$HCl$$
B$$H_2S$$ (alkaline)
Correct Answer
C$$(NH_4)_2 S$$
DNone of these

Solution

In presence of $$NH_4OH$$ dissociation of $$H_2S$$ is remarkably high so increases the solubility product of $$IV^{th}$$ group sulphides.

$$H_2S \to 2H^+ + S^{2 -}$$

$$NH_4OH \rightarrow NH_4^+ + OH^-$$

$$OH^- + H^+ \rightarrow H_2O$$
