JEE Main 30 January 2024, Shift 1, Chemistry Q79

Question 79 of 90 in this shift, Chemistry question 19 of 30, Section A.

Given below are two statements : Statement (I) : The gas liberated on warming a salt with dil H2SO4\mathrm{H_2SO_4}, turns a piece of paper dipped in lead acetate into black, it is a confirmatory test for sulphide ion. Statement (II) : In statement-I the colour of paper turns black because of formation of lead sulphite. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :
  1. (1)Both Statement I and Statement II are true
  2. (2)Both Statement I and Statement II are false
  3. (3)Statement I is true but Statement II is falseOfficial answer
