A chloride salt solution acidified with dil.HNO gives a curdy white precipitate, [A], on addition of AgNO . [A] on treatment with NH OH gives a clear solution B. A and B are respectively :
- A
- B
- C
- D
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
- Identify the curdy white precipitate formed with
A chloride salt solution, when acidified with dilute and treated with , gives the characteristic white curdy precipitate of silver chloride:
So,
- Action of on
Silver chloride dissolves in aqueous ammonia due to formation of the diamminesilver(I) complex:
Thus the clear solution contains:
So,
- Match with options
The pair is:
This corresponds to Option B.
- Why other options are incorrect
- A: is not the precipitate formed in this test.
- C: First species is incorrect.
- D: is not the expected product with ammonia; the actual dissolution is due to the ammine complex .
Therefore, the correct answer is B.
