Solution

The correct option is A acidic
When $N a_{2} S$ is treated with dilute $H_{2} S O_{4}, H_{2} S$ is released which is identified due to its rotten egg odour. It turns blue litmus paper red and lead acetate paper black.
$N a_{2} S + H_{2} S O_{4} \to N a_{2} S O_{4} + H_{2} S$
This test is done for detection of $S^{2 -}$ ions.
