3NaOH + AlCl3⟶3NaCl +Al(OH)3 NaOH⇋Na++OH− AlCl3⇋Al3++3Cl− Na++Cl−⇋NaCl Al3++3OH−⇋Al(OH)3 2H2O⇋H3O++OH− H3O+Cl−⇋HCl+H2OThe correct option is A A white precipitate which dissolves in excess NaOH
This reaction may proceed mostly in one direction due to solubility. eg: aluminum hydroxide is not very soluble (0.0001 g/100 mL at 20oC). so the overall reaction will be :

A coloured precipitate is obtained when H2S gas is passed through an aqueous solution of a salt in the presence of ammonium hydroxide. The precipitate dissolves in dilute HCl and reacts with NaOH to give white precipitate which on standing turns into a brown/black mass. The brown/black mass on fusion with KNO3 and Na2CO3 gives green mass. The cation of the salt is:
