Solution

(a) HCl gas is more dense [V.D.=18.25, V.D. of ammonia = 8.5] and it is collected by
the upward displacement of air.

(b) It forms to yield a solid aqueous Ammonium chloride salt.

$N H_{3} + H C l ⟶ N H_{4} C l$

(c) Balanced equation:
(a) $2 N H_{3} + 3 C u O ⟶ 3 C u + 3 H_{2} O + N_{2}$
(b) $2 N H_{3} + 3 C l_{2} ⟶ N_{2} + 6 H C l$
