Solution

Verified by Toppr

The 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 :

3NaOH + AlCl33NaCl +Al(OH)3

NaOHNa++OH

AlCl3Al3++3Cl

Na++ClNaCl

Al3++3OHAl(OH)3

2H2OH3O++OH

H3O+ClHCl+H2O

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:
