When HCI gas is passed through a saturated solution of common salt, pure NaCI is Precipitated because:

A

`HCl` is higly soluble in water.

B

The ionic product `[Na^(o+)] [Cl^(Theta)]` exceeds its solubility product `(K_(sp))`.

C

The `K_(sp)` of `NaCl` is lowered the presence of `HCl^(Theta)` ions.

D

`HCl` causes precipitation.

The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding the precipitation of pure NaCl when HCl gas is passed through a saturated solution of common salt (NaCl), we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Saturated Solution**: - A saturated solution of NaCl contains Na⁺ and Cl⁻ ions in equilibrium with solid NaCl. The solubility product (Ksp) of NaCl is defined as: \[ K_{sp} = [Na^+][Cl^-] \] - In a saturated solution, the ionic product (IP) equals the Ksp. 2. **Effect of Adding HCl**: - When HCl gas is passed into the solution, it dissolves to form H⁺ and Cl⁻ ions: \[ HCl \rightarrow H^+ + Cl^- \] - This increases the concentration of Cl⁻ ions in the solution. 3. **Common Ion Effect**: - The increase in Cl⁻ concentration due to HCl results in a common ion effect. According to Le Chatelier's principle, if the concentration of one of the ions in a saturated solution increases, the equilibrium will shift to the left to reduce the concentration of that ion. - This shift causes the formation of more solid NaCl, leading to precipitation. 4. **Ionic Product and Ksp**: - With the increase in Cl⁻ ions, the product of the ionic concentrations (IP) becomes greater than the Ksp of NaCl: \[ IP = [Na^+][Cl^-] > K_{sp} \] - When the ionic product exceeds the solubility product, NaCl precipitates out of the solution. 5. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the correct reason for the precipitation of NaCl when HCl gas is passed through a saturated solution of common salt is that the ionic product of Na⁺ and Cl⁻ exceeds its solubility product (Ksp). ### Final Answer: The correct option is: **The ionic product of Na⁺ and Cl⁻ exceeds its solubility product Ksp.**
