    When \[{{H}_{2}}S\] gas is passed through the \[HCl\] containing aqueous solution of \[CuC{{l}_{2}},HgC{{l}_{2}},\]\[BiC{{l}_{3}}\]and \[CoC{{l}_{2}},\], it does not precipitate out

    A)  \[CuS\]     

    B)                         \[HgS\]               

    C)         \[B{{i}_{2}}{{S}_{3}}\]                   

    D)         \[CoS\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    When \[{{H}_{2}}S\] gas is passed through the \[HCl\] containing    aqueous    solution    of \[CuC{{l}_{2}},\,HgC{{l}_{2}}.\,BiC{{l}_{3}}\] and \[CoC{{l}_{2}}\] then \[CuC{{l}_{2}}+{{H}_{2}}S\xrightarrow{{}}\underset{black\,ppt}{\mathop{CuS\downarrow +}}\,2HCl\] \[HgC{{l}_{2}}+{{H}_{2}}S\xrightarrow{{}}HgS\downarrow +HCl\] \[2BiC{{l}_{3}}+3{{H}_{2}}S\xrightarrow{{}}B{{i}_{2}}{{S}_{3}}+6HCl\] These are the alkaline radical of II A group. These radical precipitate in the presence of dil. \[HCl\] and \[H2S\]. \[Co\] is the alkaline radical of IV group which is precipitated in the presence of  \[H2S\]gas and is \[N{{H}_{4}}OH\]. Its reason that the solubility product of sulphide of Und group is lesser than the solubility product of sulphide of IV group. So, \[CoS\] will not precipitate.
