Answer

(a) O — Hydrogen chloride gas

Reason — When HCl is brought near ammonia gas, dense white fumes of ammonium chloride are formed.

HCl + NH3 ⟶ NH4Cl

(b) N — Hydrogen sulphide

Reason — Hydrogen sulphide(H2S) gas turns the moist lead acetate paper black

(CH3COO)2Pb + H2S ⟶ PbS + CH3COOH

(c) P — Nitrogen dioxide

Reason — When lead nitrate is heated nitrogen dioxide gas is evolved.

2Pb(NO3)2 Δ\xrightarrow{\Delta} 2PbO + O2 + 4NO2
