Identify the cations in each of the following cases :
(i) NaOH solution when added to the solution 'A' - gives a reddish brown precipitate.
(ii) NH4OH solution when added to the solution 'B' - gives a white ppt which does not dissolve in excess.
(iii) NaOH solution when added to the solution 'C' - gives a white ppt which is insoluble in excess.

Identify the anion present in each of the following compounds: A, B, C :
(i) Salt 'A' reacts with conc. H2SO4 producing a gas which fumes in moist air and gives dense fumes with ammonia.
(ii) Salt 'B' reacts with dil. H2SO4 producing a gas which turns lime water milky but has no effect on acidified potassium dichromate solution.
(iii) When barium chloride solution is added to salt solution. 'C' a white precipitate insoluble in dilute hydrochloric acid is obtained.
Identify the cation present in each of the following compounds — W, X, Y, Z :
(i) To solution 'W', ammonium hydroxide is added in minimum quantity first and then in excess. A dirty white precipitate is formed which dissolves in excess to form a clear solution.
(ii) To solution 'X' ammonium hydroxide is added in minimum quantity first and then in excess. A pale blue precipitate is formed which dissolves in excess to form a clear inky blue solution.
(iii) To solution 'Y' a small amount of sodium hydroxide is added slowly and then in excess. A white insoluble precipitate is formed.
(iv) To salt 'Z' - Ca(OH)2 soln. is added and heated. A pungent smelling gas turning moist red litmus paper blue is obtained.
Choose the correct answer from the options – A chloride which forms a precipitate that is soluble in excess of ammonium hydroxide, is :
- Calcium chloride
