Question

2. When you add carbon disulphide in a test tube containing a mixture of iron fillings
and sulphur powder, then what would you observe after shaking the test tube well?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Addition of carbon disulphide to a mixture containing iron fillings and sulphur powder, leads to formation of a clear yellow solution when sulphur powder dissolves in carbon disulphide, on gentle shaking. Iron fillings being insoluble settle in the bottom. These can be separated by filtration.
