The cation that will not be precipitated by $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{~S}$ in the presence of dil. HCl is :
  1. $\mathrm{Pb}^{2+}$
  2. $\mathrm{Cu}^{2+}$
  3. $\mathrm{Co}^{2+}$
  4. $\mathrm{As}^{3+}$

Solution

$\mathrm{Co}^{+2}$ ion is precipitated by $\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{~S}$ in presence of $\mathrm{NH}_{4} \mathrm{OH}$ which is a group reagent of group IV in cationic analysis.
