On addition of conc. H2SO4 to a chloride salt, colorless fumes are evolved but in case of iodide salt, violet fumes come out. This is because

1. H2SO4  reduces HI to I2

2. HI is of violet colour

3. HI gets oxidised to I2

4. HI changes to HIO3

In qualitative analysis when H2S is passed through an aqueous solution of salt acidified with dil. HCl, a black precipitate is obtained. On boiling the precipitate with dil. HNO3, it forms a solution of blue colour. Addition of excess of aqueous solution of ammonia to this solution gives:
1. Deep blue precipitate of Cu(OH)2
2. Deep blue precipitate of [Cu(NH3)4]2+
3. Deep blue precipitate of Cu(NO3)2
4. Deep blue solution of Cu(OH). Cu(NO3)2
