Answer»

A
certain salt X,
gives the following results.

(i) Its
aqueous solution is alkaline to litmus.

(ii)
It swells up to a glassy material Y
on strong heating.

(iii) When conc. H₂SO₄
is added to a hot solution of X,
white crystal of an acid Z
separates out.

Write
equations for all the above reactions and identify X,
Y and Z.
