As we learnt

 

Test of Chloride -

 

KCl + H_2SO_4\rightarrow KHSO_4 +HCl

K_2Cr_2O_7 +H_2SO_4\rightarrow K_2SO_4 +2CrO_3 +H_2O

2CrO_3 + 2HCl\rightarrow CrO_2Cl_2 +H_2O \: (Chronyl chloride)

CrO_2Cl_2 +4OH^- \rightarrow CrO^{2-}_4 (yellow) + 2Cl^{-} +H_2O

Pb^{2+}+CrO^{2-}_4 \rightarrow PbCrO_4 (yellow)

- wherein

The red colour of Chromyl Chloride and yellow colour of PbCrO_4 indicates the presence of Cl^-
