Solution
X and Z could be Na2?SO3?,H2?S respectively.
Na2?SO3? (crystalline solid) reacts with dil.HCl to liberate SO2??.
Na2?SO3? + 2HCl(dil) →2NaCl+SO2? ?↑+H2?O
SO2? decolourises acidified KMnO4?.
5SO2?+2KMnO4? + 2H2??O→K2?SO4?+2MnSO4 ?+ 2H2?SO4?
When H2?S gas is slowly passed into an aqueous solution of SO2?, colloidal sulphur is obtained.
SO2??+2H2?S→2H2?O+3S↓
