Solution

The correct option is A $H g_{2} C l_{2}, C u C l, A g C l$
$H g_{2} C l_{2}, C u C l, A g C l$ are insoluble in water due to high lattice enthalpy and low hydration enthalpy.
$N a C l, H g C l_{2}, C u C l_{2}$ are soluble in water due to low lattice enthalpy and high hydration enthalpy.
