QNEET-2020-Ch-685: NEET 2020 Chemistry - Class 11 NEET-2020-Ch-685 Solution: HCl was passed through A solution of \(CaCl_2 MgCl_2\) and…

HCl was passed through A solution of CaCl2MgCl2CaCl_2 MgCl_2 and NaCl. Which of the following compound(s) crystallize(s)? Only NaCl Only MgCl2MgCl_2 NaCl MgCl2MgCl_2 and CaCl2CaCl_2 Both MgCl2MgCl_2 and CaCl2CaCl_2

Multiple Choice Options

  • A Only NaCl
  • B Only MgCl 2
  • C NaCl, MgCl 2 and CaCl 2
  • D Both MgCl 2 and CaCl 2

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

Since CaCl 2 and MgCl 2 are more soluble than NaCl, on passing HCl(g) through A solution containing CaCl 2 , MgCl 2 and NaCl, then NaCl crystallizes out (common ion effect).
