Question 3

Compound T is a white crystalline solid.

When a sample of T was mixed with aqueous sodium hydroxide and heated, a pungent smelling gas was produced which turned damp red litmus paper blue. This same gas produced dense white smoke with hydrogen chloride gas.

Further testing of a solution of T with barium chloride solution produced a dense white precipitate which did not dissolve when dilute hydrochloric acid was added to the mixture.

What is the identity of compound T?

  A  

ammonium carbonate

  B  

ammonium sulfate


  C  

sodium carbonate


  D  

sodium sulfate
