Solution
The reaction between sodium chloride to HCl is explained earlier. Now the reaction of Hydrogen chloride to Iron sulphide is not possible 3. The reaction of hydrogen chloride to ammonium chloride. When HCl is mixed with ammonia gas ammonium chloride is formed HCl + NH3 --> NH4Cl 4. Hydrogen chloride to Lead chloride. When lead metal reacts with hydrochloric acid lead chloride is formed along with liberation of hydrogen gas Pb + 2HCl --> PbCl2 + H2 So the reaction 1,3,4 are possible while 2 is not possible.
