As we learned

 

Sodium Chloride (NaCl) -

Generally obtained by evapouration of sea water by sunlight

- wherein

It is purified by passing HCl gas to impure solution of NaCl. Concentration of Cl^{-} increases, thus pure NaCl gets precipitated due to common ion effect

 

 

Na^{+} + CI^{-}\rightarrow NaCI(SASB Salt)\overset{AgNO_{3}}{\rightarrow}AgCI

                                    (Neutral)                                          (White ppt)

                                                                                        do not disslutio in dilute HNO_{3}


Option 1)

CO_{3}^{2-}

 

 

 

Option 2)

SO_{4}^{2-}

Option 3)

CI^{-}

Option 4)

S^{2-}
