A group of students were asked to investigate a green solid and a clear solution. They were told that the solid contains a single metal compound, and the solution conducts electricity due to the presence of ions.
After some tests they noted the following:
● The green solid had a high melting point and was insoluble in water.
● The clear solution conducted electricity and formed chlorine gas during electrolysis.
● When the two substances were added together, the green solid disappeared, a colourless gas was formed and the solution turned bright blue. The gas formed in the reaction was found to extinguish a flame.
Suggest a name for the green solid.
