Write reactions of hexaaquatitanium (III) chloride with the following reactants:
1. Granulate Zn
2. 2M NH3
3. acidified K2Cr2O7
4. acdified K2Cr2O7 with indicator N-phenylanthranilic acid
5. acidfied H2O2
Solution
Reactions of hexaaquatitanium chloride
1. granulated Zn
Zn reduced Ti3+ (TiCl3) in solution to Ti which in aqueous medium gets oxidized to Ti(OH)2 and gives off H2 gas
3Zn + 2Ti3+ --> 3Zn2+ + Tl
Ti + 2H2O --> Ti(OH)2 + H2(g)
2. 2M NH3
in basic medium Ti3+ form colored oxides of Ti.
4Ti3+ + 12OH- ---> 2Ti2O3 + 6H2O
3. acidified K2Cr2O7
gives green color solution
forms H2Cr2O7 an oxidant, oxidized Ti3+ to Ti4+
6TiCl3 + K2Cr2O7 + 6HCl --> 6TCl4 + 2CrCl3 + 2KCl + 7H2O
4. acidified K2Cr2O7 with indicator N-phenylanthranilic acid
gives blue color due to Ti3+ oxidation to Ti4+
5. acidified H2O2
oxidized Ti3+ to Tl4+ state giving red-orange coloration to the solution
