- rhombic sulphur
- colloidal sulphur
- amorphous sulphur
- plastic sulphur
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
Nitric acid, being a strong oxidising agent, oxidises hydrogen sulphide into colloidal sulphur.
$3 H _{2} S +2 HNO _{3} \longrightarrow \underset{\text { yellow ppt}}{3S}+2 NO +4 H _{2} O$
