1.	When BaCl_(2) is added to an aqueous salt solution , a white ppt. is obtained . The anion amoung CO_(3)^(2-) , SO_(3)^(2-) and SO_(4)^(2-) that was present in the solution can be
Answer» `CO_(3)^(2-)` but not any of the other two `SO_(3)^(2-)` but not any of the other two `SO_(4)^(2-)` but not any of the other two any of them SOLUTION :SINCE carbonate , SULPHITE and sulphate of Ba are insoluble is `H_(2)O` , therefore , when `BaCl_(2)` is added to the solutions of these anions , white PPT. is formed . `BaCl_(2) + CO_(3)^(2-) or SO_(3)^(2-) or SO_(4)^(2-) to ` `(BaCO_(3) or BaSO_(4) or BaSO_(4))/("Insoluble in" H_(2)O) + 2 Cl^(-)` Thus , any one of them may be present and hence option (d) is CORRECT .
