A mixture of two salts is used to prepare a solution $S$, which gives the following results: White precipitate $s$ only $\xrightarrow[\text{Dilute NaOH (aq)}]{\text{Room temperature}}$ $S_{\text{aq. solution of the salts}}$ $\xrightarrow[\text{Dilute HCl (aq)}]{\text{Room temperature}}$ White precipitate $s$ only The correct option $s$ for the salt mixture is(are)
  1. PbNO32 and ZnNO32
  2. PbNO32 and BiNO33
  3. AgNO3 and BiNO33
  4. PbNO32 and HgNO32

Solution

Pb2+dil.HClPbCl2(white precipitate)

Pb2+dil.NaOHPbOH2(white precipitate)

Bi3+dil HClBiCl3(water-soluble)

Bi3+dil. NaOHBiOH3(white precipitate)

Hg2+dil.HClHgCl2(water-soluble)

Hg2+dil. NaOHHgOH2(yellow precipitate)

Ag+dil. HClAgCl(white precipitate)

Ag+dil. NaOHAgOH(brown precipitate)

Zn2+dil. HClZnCl2(water-soluble)

Zn2+dil .NaOHZnOH2(white precipitate)
