A colourless solution contains a metal nitrate. A little solution of sodium chloride is added to it when a cloudy white precipitate appears. The precipitate is of

A

`PbCl_2`

B

`AgCl`

C

`Hg_2Cl_2`

D

`any of the three.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
The cloride ions have combined with the metal ions to give the precipitate of chloride as sodium nitrate is soluble Metal nitrate + `NaCl rarr " Metal chloride " + NaNO_3`
The metal chloride may be `PbCl_2` or AgCl of `Hg_2Cl_2`

A colourless aqueous solution contains nitrates of two metals, X and Y. When it was added to an aqueous solution NaCl, a white precipitate was formed. This precipitate was found to be partly soluble in hot water to give a residue P and a solution Q. The residue P was soluble in aq. NH_(3) and also in excess sodium thiosulfate. The hot solution Q gave a yellow precipirate with Kl. The metals X and Y, respectively, are :
