Paragraph: An aqueous solution of a mixture of two inorganic salts, when treated with dilute HCH C ?, gave a precipitate (P)(\boldsymbol{P}) and a filtrate (Q)(\boldsymbol{Q}). The precipitate P\boldsymbol{P} was found to dissolve in hot water. The filtrate (Q)(\boldsymbol{Q}) remained unchanged, when treated with H2 S\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{~S} in a dilute mineral acid medium. However, it gave a precipitate (R)(\boldsymbol{R}) with H2SH_{2} S in an ammoniacal medium. The precipitate R\boldsymbol{R} gave a coloured solution (S)(\boldsymbol{S}), when treated with H2O2\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{2} in an aqueous NaOH\mathrm{NaOH} medium.
Question: The precipitate P\boldsymbol{P} contains

Options

  1. APb2+
  2. BHg22+{\text{Hg}}_{2}^{2 +}
  3. CAg+{\text{Ag}}^{+}
  4. DHg2+{\text{Hg}}^{2 +}

Correct answer

A. Pb2+

Step-by-step solution

{Pb2++2Cl−⟶PbCl2(white ppt)soluble in hot water\begin{cases}{\text{Pb}}^{2 +} + 2 {\text{Cl}}^{-} & ⟶ & {\text{PbCl}}_{2} \left(\text{white ppt}\right) \\ & & \text{soluble in hot water}\end{cases}
