3 of 3
Compound T is a white crystalline solid.
When a sample of T was mixed with aqueous sodium hydroxide and heated, a pungent smelling gas was produced which turned damp red litmus paper blue. This same gas produced dense white smoke with hydrogen chloride gas.
Further testing of a solution of T with barium chloride solution produced a dense white precipitate which did not dissolve when dilute hydrochloric acid was added to the mixture.
What is the identity of compound T?
