    \[C{{u}^{2+}}\] and \[A{{g}^{+}}\] both are present in a solution. To precipitate only one of these at a time, we should add:

    A)  \[HN{{O}_{3}}(aq.)\]    

    B)         \[{{H}_{2}}S(aq.)\]         

    C)  \[HCl\,(aq.)\]   

    D)         \[N{{H}_{4}}N{{O}_{3}}\,(aq.)\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[A{{g}^{+}}\] is present in 1st group and \[C{{u}^{2+}}\] in 2nd group of basic-radical analysis. \[A{{g}^{+}}\] can be precipitated by adding dil. \[HCl\] to the solution, while \[C{{u}^{2+}}\] is not precipitated as the solubility product of \[CuC{{l}_{2}}\] is higher than \[AgCl\].
