A colorless aqueous solution contains nitrates of two metals, XX and YY. When it was added to an aqueous solution of NaClNaCl, a white precipitate was formed. This precipitate was found to be partly soluble in hot water to give a residue PP and a solution QQ. The residue PP was soluble in aq. NH3{NH}_{3} and also in excess sodium thiosulfate. The hot solution QQ gave a yellow precipitate with KIKI. The metals XX and YY, respectively, are

Options

  1. AAgAg and PbPb
  2. BAgAg and CdCd
  3. CCdCd and PbPb
  4. DCdCd and ZnZn

Correct answer

A. AgAg and PbPb

Step-by-step solution

X=AgNO3X = {AgNO}_{3}, Y=Pb(NO3)2Y = Pb{\left({NO}_{3}\right)}_{2}

AgNO3(X)+NaCl→AgCl(P)↓+NaNO3\mathop{{\text{AgNO}}_{3}}_{\left(X\right)} + \text{NaCl} \to \mathop{\text{AgCl}}_{( \text{P} )} ↓ + {\text{NaNO}}_{3}

AgCl(s)↓(P)+2NH3→[Ag(NH3)2]+SolubleCl−\mathop{AgCl ( \text{s} ) ↓}_{( \text{P} )} + 2{\text{NH}}_{3} \to \mathop{{\left[\text{Ag}{\left({\text{NH}}_{3}\right)}_{2}\right]}^{+}}_{Soluble}{\text{Cl}}^{-}

AgCl(P)+2Na2S2O3→Na3[Ag(S2O3)2]Solubel+NaCl\mathop{AgCl}_{( P )} + 2{Na}_{2}{S}_{2}{O}_{3} \to {Na}_{3}\mathop{\left[Ag{\left({S}_{2}{O}_{3}\right)}_{2}\right]}_{Solubel} + NaCl

Pb(NO3)2(Y)+2NaCl→PbCl2Pb\mathop{{\left({NO}_{3}\right)}_{2}}_{\left(Y\right)} + 2NaCl \to {PbCl}_{2}Whiteppt(Q)(Solubleinhotwater)\begin{array}{ll}Whiteppt\left(Q\right) \\ ( Solubleinhot \\ water )\end{array}↓+2NaNO3\text{↓} + 2{NaNO}_{3}

PbCl2{\text{PbCl}}_{2}(aq.)(Q)\begin{array}{ll}\left(aq .\right) \\ \left(Q\right)\end{array}+2KI→PbI2Yellowppt+2KCl+ 2\text{KI} \to \mathop{{\text{PbI}}_{2}}_{Yellowppt} + 2\text{KCl}
