Answer
(a) When ethylene gas is passed through bromine water, the reddish brown colour of bromine water disappears due to the formation of the colourless dibromoethane.
(b) When silver nitrate reacts with Hydrochloric acid it gives a white precipitate of AgCl which is insoluble in nitric acid but soluble in ammonium hydroxide.
AgNO3 + HCl ⟶ AgCl ↓ + HNO3
(c) Barium chloride reacts with potassium sulphate to form barium sulphate (a white insoluble solid) and potassium chloride.
BaCl2 + K2SO4 ⟶ BaSO4 + 2KCl
