Given below are two statements.
Statement I: Passing dry HCl gas through a saturated 
solution at room temperature produces turbidity due to precipitation.
Statement II: Passing HCl gas through a saturated NaCl solution precipitates NaCl due to the common ion effect.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsB
Passing 
into a saturated NaCl solution adds the common ion 
, so NaCl precipitates. In contrast, 
is quite soluble and bubbling dry HCl through its saturated solution does not produce turbidity/precipitation.
