    \[HCl\] was passed through a solution of \[CaC{{l}_{2}},\text{ }MgC{{l}_{2}}\] and \[NaCl\]. Which of the following compound(s) crystallise(s)? [NEET 2020]

    A) Only \[NaCl\]

    B) Only \[MgC{{l}_{2}}\]

    C) \[NaCl,\text{ }MgC{{l}_{2}}\] and \[CaC{{l}_{2}}\]

    D) Both \[MgC{{l}_{2}}\] and \[CaC{{l}_{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] Since \[CaC{{l}_{2}}\] and \[MgC{{l}_{2}}\] are more soluble than\[NaCl\], on passing HCl(g) through a solution containing \[CaC{{l}_{2}},\text{ }MgC{{l}_{2}}\] and \[NaCl\] then \[NaCl\] crystallizes out.
