Distinguishing reagent between silver and lead salts is

Question

Distinguishing reagent between silver and lead salts is (A)  H2S gas (B) dil. HCl solution (C)  NH4Cl (solid) + NH4OH solution (D)  NH4Cl (solid) + (NH4)2CO3 solution

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

On adding dil. HCl to silver and lead salts, white ppt. of chlorides of Ag and Pb are obtained which on heating with water are separated from each other as PbCl2 is soluble in hot water but AgCl is not.

Q. Distinguishing reagent between silver and lead salts is

$H_{2} S$ gas

dil. $H Cl$ solution

$N H_{4} Cl$ (solid) + $N H_{4} O H$ solution

$N H_{4} Cl$ (solid) + $(N H_{4})_{2} C O_{3}$ solution

On adding dil. $H Cl$ to silver and lead salts, white ppt. of chlorides of Ag and Pb are obtained which on heating with water are separated from each other as $P b C l_{2}$ is soluble in hot water but $A g Cl$ is not.
