Amongst the various ores of a metal (M) (sulphide, carbonates, oxides, hydrated or hydrixides) two ores [X] and [Y] show the following reactivity? (a) [X[] on calcination gives a black solid (S), water and a colourless gas which produces milkiness when passed through lime water. But this colourless gas does not decolorise acidified KMnO_(4). (b) [X] dissolved in diliute HCl. On reaction with KI gives a white precipitate(P) and iodine gas. (c) [Y] on roasting at high temperature gives metal (M) and gas (G_(1)) which turns starch iodate solution blue. (d) [Y] on reaction with dilute HCl gives a white precipatate (MS) and another gas (G_(1)) to precipitate colloidal sulpher in presence of moisture. M,S[X],[Y] gives greenish blue flame. The gas (G_(1)) can act as:

Answer»

OXIDISING agent
reducing agent
oxidising agent reducing agent
fluxing agent

Solution :`"COLOURLESS gas" to CO_(2)X to Cu^(2+), CO_(3)^(2-),OH^(-)`
G_(2) to H_(2)S, G_(1)to SO_(2),M to Cu, Sto CUO
Y to Cu^(2+), S^(2-)
