Why are only `Pb^(2+),Ag^(o+)` and `Hg_(2)^(2+)` ions precipitated in group I?

Answer» Out of all the chlorides those of `Pb^(2+), Ag^(o+)` and `Hg_(2)^(2+)` are insoluble HCl is the reagent group I. thus chlorides of `Pb^(2+),Ag^(o+)` and `Hg_(2)^(2+)` are precipitated I group I.
`AgNO_(3)+Hcltounderset(("white ppt."))(AgCl(s))+HNO_(3)`
Other cations remain in solution because their chlorides are soluble.
